The color is pale as pink ice and its bubbles erupt in a luminous lava-like flow, giving off a light strawberry floral aroma… yet this beautiful little sparkler from the Veneto region of Italy is dry — not the super sweet style many of us know. It’s the absolute perfect bubbly for Hannukah and Christmas, in our opinion. You certainly can’t beat the price. Lamberti Rosé Spumante sells for around $15. Call ahead to your wine store and tell them the distributor is Frederick Wildman & Sons. They should have it to you within 24 hours. (The white Lamberti Spumante is also delicious and at the same price point.) As an homage to Stephen Colbert, “Your’re welcome, America.” — FM
