Best of Bubbly

We all like a sparkling wine. The satisfying pop of the cork, the effervescent bubbles that dance across our tongues, what’s not to like?

But there comes a time in every gal’s life when just any fizz won’t do. Just in time for toast season, Calgary Co-op Wine and Spirits is offering its Discover Sparkling Wines tasting event  ($30). Sip prosecco, cava, cremant while being educated on the finer points of blanc de blanc and demi-sec. You’ll be among drinking buddies so seize the opportunity to pose all those questions you were too timid to ask before, like what the heck is demi-sec. —Jaelyn Molyneux
