d.: It's a weird ball of taste.

g.: I thought it was fine on the first sip, but I think I just threw it back like a shot. Nice. Anyway, I kind of shuddered on the second sip.

d.: There's kind of a smoky sourness.

g.: Oh my god, it smells like something that I know but I don't know what it is [wow]. I think it's cat food. Or maybe something rotting.

d.: I agree about the cat food.

g.: I don't know about this one. Maybe it's just been awhile since I had a chardonnay, but it seems weird.

d.: I think I like it, despite it being smoky sour cork rotting cat food wine. It's a good sipping wine.

g.: I'll see how it tastes by the third glass.*

* Not rotting, and not like cat food. Pleasantly surprised. It held up well.
