"There's only one way to cap off a festive NYE -- sabering! I like to create a show-stopping moment right after the ball drops by bringing out a bottle of sparkling and my champagne sword and sabering the top off the bottle for a nice 'hoorah' moment. Just don't let the kids try to attempt!" - Roman Roth, Winemaker
Nicolette Diodati, Marketing: "I know bubbly is the go-to on New Year's, but I love to start my night with a dessert wine. Pair with a nutty soft-rind cheese, blue-cheese stuffed figs, or a foie gras." - Nicolette Diodati, Marketing
"We are headed up to the Adironadacks this year for our New Year's Eve celebrations and we packed a ton of our new Petite Rosé. The non-alcoholic verjus is great for the kids to feel like they are celebrating with us, and its bubbles make it perfect for us adults who want to start 2019 hangover-free!" - Joey Wölffer, Co-owner
Ginny Mavroleon, Wine Shop: "I'm heading home to London for the New Year to spend time wiht family, and I love the traditions over there. We sip bubbles all night, play games, and watch the fireworks show at midnight." - Ginny Mavroleon, Retail Sales
"New Year's Eve is my favorite time to be really playful with my pairings. I love a really good bottle of sparkling wine with fried chicken or truffle french fries, or No. 139 Rosé Cider with spicy Asian food or Bao buns. It's all about being creative and having fun!" - Ali Tuthill, Marketing
