New Year’s Eve is for many Dutch people the time to put the bubbles cold. Countdown together and toast the new year exactly at noon. An unforgettable and sparkling moment; that should be allowed more often, shouldn’t it? At More Bubbles you will find everything you need to create many more of these beautiful moments.

Why bubbles?

Sparkling wine has been a symbol of festive occasions for centuries. From official occasions to birthdays and from aperitifs to weddings. And in the Netherlands, Oud & Nieuw, counts as the national bubbly moment.

Besides being associated with festive and special occasions, bubbles have broader uses than that. Did you know that the mousse (the bubbles) help clear your palette before a meal and are uplifting? And that the different grapes and styles used also make them good for pairing with dishes? Because not all bubbles are made the same, there are varieties available in all price and taste categories!

Choosing between different sparkling wines

When you don’t drink a lot of bubbles, it can be difficult to choose which one best suits your moment. You probably quickly reach for a well-known champagne brand or the easy Prosecco. However, the taste and style can vary greatly: prosecco, for example, is often young and fruity and champagne richer with a softer bubble. And did you know that cremant is an affordable alternative to champagne and spumante can mean anything?

More Bubbles offers an extensive range of sparkling wines from around the world: from unique and exclusive Champagnes to affordable but flavorful Cava, you’ll find it all here. The clear descriptions and advice make it easy to choose one that perfectly suits your taste and budget. Because all bubbles are made by small wine farmers, they have one thing in common: they are produced with passion and you can taste that back.

Taste the difference with luxury Champagnes

Of course, champagne is the star among bubbles, but also true: not all champagne is the same. For example, a brut is dry and a brut nature even drier; a reserve is longer matured and therefore richer and there are champagnes from 1 vineyard or with wood maturation. On MeerBubbels.nl you can find exclusive bubbles and special editions that will make your moment extra special. Try something new this year and choose a champagne you haven’t tasted before. Think for example of a vintage champagne, which will surprise every champagne lover with its rich flavors and refined bubbles.

Another recommendation is the selection of “prestige champagnes” from smaller champagne houses. Often made with great care and craftsmanship, these champagnes offer a unique taste experience. Perfect for impressing your guests!

Tips for a true bubbly spectacle

To make your bubble moment even more special, here are a few tips to make the most of your bubbles:

• Choose the right wine for your party – More Bubbles’ assortment is diverse, so there is something for everyone. Hosting a big party? Then go for an affordable Prosecco. For an intimate dinner with loved ones, a sophisticated Champagne is perfect.
• Serve at the right temperature – Make sure your sparkling wine is chilled to the right temperature. Fruity sparkling wines may be served at 6-7 degrees, while ripe and richer bubbles may be served between 8 and 10 degrees Celsius. Too cold? Then you lose the subtlety of the flavors. Too warm? Then the bubbles become too intense.
• Use beautiful glasses – An elegant champagne glass or flûte makes the moment just that little bit more festive. Moreover, the bubbles retain themselves better in a long, narrow glass. A ripe champagne, however, is exactly what you want to pour into a tulip-shaped glass to enjoy the flavors extra.
• Pair bubbles with appetizers – Sparkling wine pairs wonderfully with a variety of appetizers. Think oysters, smoked salmon or a delicious cheese board. You’ll also find advice on the best pairings on More Bubbles!
• Make it a tradition – Why keep bubbles only for New Year’s Eve? Start a new tradition by celebrating special moments throughout the year with a glass of your favorite sparkling wine.
