Whether you're an astronomer, a space buff, or just love wine with incredible bubbles and flavor, Stargazing Cuvée is the perfect way to toast under the stars. Awestruck by the NASA images, it occurred to us that we could create something special --an out-of-this-world Sparkling Wine. This is the second vintage in a series of magnum-sized tête de cuvée Sparkling Wines featuring exquisite images from the James Webb Space Telescope. It comes in a gift box with a keepsake Iron Horse champagne stopper for $195., shipping included. This year, the label shows a stunning molecular space cloud, the birthplace of stars. This is the perfect toast to the jaw-dropping beauty of the universe, the marvels of science and the sparkle within each of us. To paraphrase Neil deGrasse Tyson, we are all made of stardust. Plus, magnums are the optimum size for celebrations large or small.
