Get Your Bubbly Fix at Le Dip
You can find one of the most passionate sommeliers in the city at Le Diplomate. His name is Erik Segelbaum and Champagne is his specialty. “I spend 364 days a year thinking about which bubbly to serve on New Year’s Eve,” he tells us during a tasting of some of his new finds. Erik took the holidays as an opportunity to revamp Le Diplomate’s bubbly selection to focus on lesser known, exceptional bottles that he says have high value. Some are produced in smaller quantities, while others are grower Champagnes, meaning the vintner didn’t borrow any grapes from off property. A favorite was the PHILIPPONNAT Brut Rosé. Stop in to try it while Le Dip’s all dressed up for Christmas.
