- LaJollaBlue - 12-27-2006 Does anyone have advice for giving wine as a New Years gift? I'm really looking for something that will impress my wine enthusiast friend. She's an Australian native who now lives in the Bay Area ...talk about a tough person to buy for! Thanks for your help. - Innkeeper - 12-27-2006 Hi LaJollaBlue, and welcome to the Wine Board. Why not impress the person with a nice California sparkler. I would recommend a Roederer of California Blanc de Noir. - winoweenie - 12-27-2006 Hi LJB and add my welcome to the board. Add my recs to the sparkler but would think maybe a nice bubbly from France would be more impressive for the same money. Had a marvelous Perrier Jouet Brut for our Xmas morn drink that was delicious.
