Okay, so you wanna know ’bout this Wycliff Brut, huh? Alright, alright, I’ll tell ya what I know. Don’t expect no fancy words from me, though. I ain’t one of them city folk with their big vocabularies.
First off, what is it? Well, it’s one of them bubbly wines. You know, the kind you pop open for celebrations. Or, you know, if you just feelin’ fancy on a Tuesday night. They call it “sparkling wine,” I guess ’cause it’s got all them bubbles. Makes your tongue tingle, ya know?
Now, this Wycliff Brut, it’s made out in California. Big ol’ place out there, lots of sunshine, I hear. They grow grapes, lots and lots of grapes. And that’s what they use to make this wine. They use the good ones, they say, the “premium” ones. Sounded fancy to me.
- They say it tastes like apples and pears. I like apples and pears, so that’s a good thing.
- They also say there’s a little bit of honey and somethin’ called “citrus” in there. I ain’t sure what that is, but it sounds kinda like lemons or somethin’.
- And it’s got a “crisp clean finish,” whatever that means. I guess it just means it tastes good and doesn’t leave a funny taste in your mouth.
How do you drink it? Well, you gotta chill it first. Not too cold, not too warm. Just right, like Goldilocks and her porridge, ya know? They say between 45 and 50 degrees. I ain’t got no thermometer, so I just stick it in the fridge for a while. Then, you pop the cork – carefully, now, don’t want it flyin’ off and hittin’ somebody – and pour it in a glass. Any glass will do, really. I like to use my grandma’s old glasses. Makes it feel special.
When do you drink it? Like I said, for celebrations. Birthdays, holidays, maybe even just ’cause it’s Friday. But you don’t need no special occasion, really. If you wanna drink it on a Wednesday night while watchin’ TV, you go right ahead. Nobody’s gonna stop ya. It’s supposed to be good for big get-togethers too, if you got a lot of folks comin’ over.
What’s it like, really? Well, it’s bubbly, like I said. Kinda tickles your nose. And it’s a little bit sweet, but not too sweet. They call it “dry,” which I guess means it ain’t sugary like them juice boxes the kids drink. It’s got a nice taste, though. Fruity, but not too strong. Easy to drink, ya know? You could drink a whole bottle if you ain’t careful. Not that I ever done that… much.
Is it expensive? I ain’t gonna lie, it ain’t the cheapest stuff on the shelf. But it ain’t the most expensive neither. I reckon it’s kinda in the middle. Worth it for a special occasion, though, or if you just wanna treat yourself. Life’s too short to drink bad wine, that’s what I always say. Even though I mostly drink sweet tea, a little bubbly now and then don’t hurt.
So, there you have it. That’s about all I know about this Wycliff Brut. It’s a bubbly wine from California, tastes like apples and pears, and is good for celebratin’ or just relaxin’. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I think I’m gonna go pour myself a glass. All this talk about wine’s made me thirsty. And maybe I’ll put on my good shoes, even though it ain’t Sunday.
And remember, drink responsibly, ya hear? Don’t go gettin’ all tipsy and makin’ a fool of yourself. That’s what my ma always used to say, bless her heart.
