L’Éclat Blanc de Blancs, $11.99
This bottle of L’Éclat Blanc de Blancs is crisp and a little fruity, per the Trader Joe's website, and it smells like buttery, freshly-baked cake. It actually tastes like a party in a bottle, so it's pretty much necessary for any and all celebrations this holiday season.
