Wine choice for a romantic evening

[lizardbrains]

I understand that you're in the "boonies", but do you have a Costco within a drive's distance? Costco has a great selection of wine.

As far as a good "champagne"/sparkling wine... My DH and I really like the Moet et Chandon (White Star) for $30. I found it at the grocery store (we're in CA), but it's a popular enough one that I would think/hope that you could find it SOMEWHERE between AL and TN!

Of course, the others on this board are able to give you more educated/experienced advice in order to find one that would really impress, but I figured I'd throw the brand out to you to give you something to look for. My DH is not interested in wine, and thinks all champagne tastes like skunk (I'm working on him!), but he liked the Moet et Chandon.

Good luck!
