They seem so good in the movies, but actually taste mostly just like straight vodka, which most people aren’t going to enjoy.

    As someone with thirty years at some of the top retailers in the wine business I will eternally disagree with this take. Most great champagnes are brut.

      I prefer mine a bit sweeter. I also prefer a coupe so I guess my champagne tastes are just two hundred years old.

        Your preference for the demisec is almost certainly related to your cup preference. I did a tasting if box wines 20 years ago. what we realized was the winner was always what was in the Bordeaux glass vs the burgundy because it concentrated the scents more.
