Can't really go wrong with Veuve Cliquot. Nice and fresh, and not expensive. they are about $ 37 a bottle at Costco. Got myself a couple for New Year.

It all depends on what you want to use it for. Is it for a party? Friends? Family? Significant other?

Crystal is overrated as well. (A lot of similar and even better tasting champagnes at a fraction of its cost). If you want luxury and class, go with Krug or Bollinger... that'll knock your socks (and her panties) off.....

Other nice recommendations; Veuve Cliquot La Grand Dame Rose or vintage 1990

Dom Perignon Vintage 1996
Perrier Jouet Belle Epoque
Krug NV Grand Cuvee

etc.
