Tannic (dries mouth out), definitely smells jammy (think less Smuckers and more like afternoon tea with scones and butter); taste is a little flatter than I remembered, but has spice and earthy tones, fruit is coming out more the more I drink it. Perfect for watching true crime docs/bad reality TV, and general autumnal activities — a year ago

Definitely Brut, dry, but also very drinkable. Smells like green apples. Solid by itself, makes you feel rich, but maybe also good in mimosas? Paired well with cheap Chinese (chicken lo mein), but probably even better with sushi — a year ago

Classic California Cab, plum, berry, a little jammy; drinkable but easy for the alcohol to sneak up on you. — a year ago
