Champagne. For some, the word conjures up the holiday season and a small sprinkling of other festive events. For others, it s dollar signs and anxiety the pressure to spend a lot without knowing what you re in for. For too few according to Ariel Arce, owner of Air s Champagne Parlor does Champagne say fun. Drawing on her decade of experience selling, drinking, and exploring the world of sparkling wine, Better with Bubbles educates, amuses, inspires, and empowers readers to make Champagne and sparkling wine their go-to, everyday treat. Divided into two sections (one for Champagne the sparkling wine that comes from the region of Champagne and the other from sparkling wines from around the world), Better with Bubbles dispenses with dry backstory and tedious tasting notes in favor of a rollicking, visual tour of the complete universe of bubbly. There will be sections that help you discover your palate through emoji; a guide to what to wear (and not wear) to a vineyard; and an instructive, visually rich guide to creating sparkling soirees like a Champagne ping-pong pizza party; a lazy Sunday with bubbly and buddies, and a glam disco dance. The sparkling section will cover the dominant sparkling regions around the world (Italy, Spain, and elsewhere in France), along with exciting newer players like Greece, England, the U. S. , America, Australia, and Japan.
Dubbed the Champion of Champagne (and one of their 40 Tastemakers Under 40) by Wine Enthusiast, Ariel Arce is a restauranteur and owner of Air' s Champagne Parlor, Tokyo Record Bar, Niche Niche, and Special Club in New York. She previously worked as the wine director of Birds and Bubbles, as well as at the cult Chicago cocktail venue, The Office at the Aviary.
