Now as you know this writer very much believes that sparkling wines are appropriate all year round but in the spirit of the season the Frederick Wine House is having a free New Years Eve Champagne tasting from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. Some nice bubblies including Gosset Brut Grand Rose which goes for $78 a bottle. I’ve never had that particular wine but I have had some other Champagnes from Gosset and they were very very good.
