The Insider: Where to Sip Champagne in Sin City

Lilly Bollinger, one of the producers of Bollinger Champagnes, once said, “I only drink Champagne when I'm happy, and when I'm sad. Sometimes I drink it when I'm alone. When I have company, I consider it obligatory. I trifle with it if I am not hungry and drink it when I am. Otherwise I never touch it — unless I'm thirsty." We feel there’s no time when Champagne isn’t appropriate. So whether you’re celebrating, with friends or alone, try out one of these places to sup Champagne in Las Vegas.
