Years ago I read that Oprah gives herself a day to do whatever she wants and suggested we do the same. Like her, my day is Sunday. My love of Sundays comes from childhood memories of my mom doing some serious kitchen magick and making a fabulous dinner or family outings to @lubys when mom wasn't in the mood to cook. My new Sunday tradition has turned into cooking and sipping sparkling wine. A while back, way before I was in the booze biz my bubble choices were whatever I could afford ranging from @barefootwine bubbly to @jaumeserracristalino. Those were the wines that got me curious about wine. Now of course my options go from affordable to luxury. I'm thrilled to be drinking a sample of Taittinger Prelude. It's a fabulous bottle of bubbles. Creamy, mineral finish, and sexy fullness. Meoow! I'm making filet mignon and it will pair perfectly. Long story short, live life through your senses. Give yourself a day to do whatever the f*ck you want. Eat and drink what makes you happy. It's your day... do it your way.

Champagne: The Brunch Series

There are so many things that we love and want to celebrate in life. I wanted to host a brunch that was low key but colorful and definitely full of bubbles and great eats.

Spain. The King of Wines.

That’s right Italy! That’s right France! Spain now reigns supreme as the biggest producer of wine in the world. According to the Spanish Ministry of Agriculture, in 2013 they produced about 6.7 billion bottles of wine. That’s enough to provide 1 bottle to every man and woman on the planet.

There’s one tiny wrinkle. Spain prefers beer and spirits over wine by a huge margin. In fact, Spain has the second lowest per capita wine consumption in Europe, behind of all countries, Norway. Since the Norwegians clearly can’t take all this wine off of Spain’s hands, and their own kinsmen don’t want it either, I think it’s our honor and duty as Americans to pitch in.

Americans love wine. According to the State of the Wine Industry, “Wine has grown at a 3.4% rate [year over year] since 2005, outpacing all other [alcoholic] beverages sold.” So, let’s lend a helping hand and buy Spanish wine -- for their sake, by the caseload.

To do our small part, BeverageGrades would like to offer up some suggestions of highly rated Spanish wines to cart into your cellars. Salud!

Jaume Serra Cristalino Brut Cava - $9                               This Spanish sparkling wine is a great bargain and has only 128 calories per serving. It’s a delicious 5 star healthy rated wine.

Martin Codax Albarino (2011) - $15 If you like Albarinos, than you’ll love this one. It’s a 5 star healthy find as well.

Blanc de Pacs White Blend (2010) - $15 This 4 star healthy rated wine is an excellent choice. It is rated very highly for persons with Diabetes or Heart Disease.

Congrats again to the mighty Spaniards, and game on next year for their friends to the North!
