Here at Mr. Chow Liquor Store, we’ve put together Malaysia’s best selection of genuine champagne, perfect for all your festive celebrations. Plus, with our same-day delivery in Klang Valley, your bottles will arrive perfectly chilled just in time for reunion dinners and prosperity toasts. This means even if you have a last-minute gifting emergency, we’ve got you covered lah.

There’s just something about champagne that screams celebration, making it the perfect choice for Chinese New Year gifting and family gatherings all across Malaysia. Its beautiful golden colour and those endless rising bubbles are seen as powerful symbols of wealth and moving up in life. Our team has helped thousands of Malaysian customers during the festive season, and we always find ourselves recommending premium champagne because everyone loves it, and it perfectly captures that feeling of abundance and joy.

Why Champagne Defines Chinese New Year Excellence

A bottle of good champagne has become a true symbol of prosperity for celebrations here in Malaysia, representing all the excitement and joy of a fresh start. Just imagine all those thousands of tiny bubbles rising in the glass—each one is like a little wish for good fortune and happiness in the coming year. Every champagne bottle in our collection is 100% genuine, original, and authentic. We source them directly from authorised importers and big-name brand partners like Moët & Chandon, Dom Pérignon, and Veuve Clicquot. So, what does this mean for you? It means you get complete peace of mind. You can give your chinese new year champagne gifts with confidence, knowing you’re presenting a product of impeccable quality that makes you look damn good.

The tradition of popping open champagne during Chinese New Year comes from its long-held association with wealth, success, and golden opportunities—themes that fit perfectly with the spirit of Gong Xi Fa Cai. In our experience serving customers across Malaysia, champagne is consistently the most requested premium drink for reunion dinners and those all-important prosperity toasts. It just adds a touch of international class to our beloved traditional festivities.

Premium Champagne Categories for Chinese New Year 2026

Non-Vintage Champagne Excellence

Non-vintage champagne is all about that consistent house style that Malaysian families know and trust, year after year. The term “Non-Vintage” (or NV) simply means the champagne is a careful blend of grapes from different years. The way we explain it to our customers is to think of it like a restaurant’s famous signature dish—it’s specially crafted to taste exactly the same every single time you order it, giving you that reliable quality you can always count on. These bottles offer fantastic value while still delivering the premium quality everyone expects during Chinese New Year.

When it comes to a classic Moet Chandon Chinese New Year gift, the Impérial is still our number one recommendation in Malaysia. It perfectly blends affordability with that unmistakable touch of luxury. The brand name is instantly recognised and respected, making it a “safe” yet very impressive choice for your boss, clients, or even your future in-laws. Its golden bottle design also looks great with traditional CNY decorations, and its consistent flavour—usually with notes of green apple and citrus—is a crowd-pleaser that will satisfy everyone at the family gathering.

Veuve Clicquot Yellow Label is another brilliant option, with its iconic orange label making it visually striking for gift presentations. We often recommend this champagne to customers who are looking for a bolder, more full-bodied flavour that pairs wonderfully with all the delicious Chinese New Year food. To put it simply, it has a richer, more toasty or biscuit-like character compared to Moët, which helps it stand up beautifully to heartier festive dishes.

Prestige Cuvée Selection

For those of you looking to make the ultimate statement this Chinese New Year, a prestige cuvée champagne delivers luxury and sophistication like nothing else. A “prestige cuvée” is the absolute best-of-the-best from a champagne house, made only from the finest grapes in the very best years. It’s basically the first-class ticket of the champagne world. These bottles represent the peak of champagne craftsmanship and make for magnificent gifts for important business partners, respected family elders, or to celebrate special milestones.

Dom Pérignon Vintage is truly the gold standard for premium Chinese New Year gifting in Malaysia. Each vintage captures the unique excellence of a single year, which makes it a really meaningful way to commemorate specific Chinese zodiac years or important family achievements. For instance, gifting a 2012 vintage in the Year of the Dragon (2024) creates a thoughtful link back to the previous Dragon year, adding a wonderful layer of storytelling to your gift.

Krug Grande Cuvée is an ultra-premium choice for discerning Malaysian customers who really appreciate complex, multi-vintage blends. While Dom Pérignon is all about one single great year, Krug’s magic is in blending many great years together to create something truly extraordinary. Its distinctive bottle shape and incredible reputation make this champagne an impressive centrepiece for any high-end Chinese New Year celebration, showing a deep appreciation for the finer things in life.

Champagne Pairing with Chinese New Year Delicacies

Knowing a little bit about champagne and food pairing can seriously upgrade your Chinese New Year dining experience. The bubbles and acidity in champagne are fantastic palate cleansers, cutting right through the richness of many of our favourite festive dishes. Based on the traditional Malaysian-Chinese New Year menu, we have a few specific recommendations.

• Brut Champagne — “Brut” is just the French word for “dry,” which means it has very little sugar. This style is a perfect match for yee sang (our prosperity toss salad)! The crisp acidity acts like a squeeze of lemon, complementing the fresh veggies and plum sauce without overpowering any of the delicate flavours. Moët & Chandon Impérial is particularly brilliant for this.
• Rosé Champagne — This style gets its lovely pink colour and subtle red fruit flavours from a brief contact with red grape skins. It creates a beautiful harmony with roasted duck or char siu (barbecued pork). Those subtle berry notes enhance the sweet glaze, while the fizz cleanses your palate between each rich, delicious bite.
• Demi-Sec Champagne — This means “semi-sweet,” so this champagne has a noticeable but well-balanced sweetness. It’s the ideal partner for traditional Chinese New Year desserts like nian gao (sticky rice cake) or pineapple tarts, as it balances their sweetness while keeping that celebratory sparkle. It works with the dessert instead of fighting against it.

Investment Value of Premium Champagne

Premium champagne isn’t just for celebrating in the moment; it can also be a pretty good long-term investment. Vintage champagne from famous houses often goes up in value over time, much like a piece of fine art or a luxury watch. This means your Chinese New Year champagne purchase could be rewarding long after the celebrations are over.

We often stock limited-edition Chinese New Year champagne releases that come in special packaging or have zodiac-themed designs. These can become quite collectible for discerning Malaysian customers. For your gift, this means it’s more than just a drink; it’s a keepsake that can be displayed and treasured for years to come. These special releases usually sell out fast, so ordering early is key to getting the bottles you want.

In our experience, customers who invest in prestige champagne for Chinese New Year always tell us about how much it enhanced their celebrations and how much the recipients loved the gift. It’s an investment that pays off in memorable moments and stronger relationships.

Champagne Storage and Service Excellence

How you store and serve your champagne can make a huge difference to your Chinese New Year celebration. You wouldn’t serve a premium dish cold, right? The same idea applies here. We recommend storing your champagne bottles on their side in a consistently cool place (ideally between 10-15°C) and away from direct sunlight. This keeps the cork moist and stops the precious liquid inside from spoiling.

• The best serving temperature is between 6-8°C for the optimal taste during your CNY toasts. The best way to do this is to chill the bottle in an ice bucket with some water for about 20-30 minutes before serving. Please don’t over-chill it in the freezer, as that can numb all those delicate flavours you paid for!
• The right glass also makes a difference. Flute glasses are great for preserving those lovely bubbles and concentrating the aromas, which works well for most champagnes. However, for a really complex prestige cuvée like Dom Pérignon, a tulip-shaped glass is better because it allows you to swirl and appreciate the aromas, unlocking its full potential.
