Rocket Rankings - "Sparkling Wine"

Matt and Friends Drink the Universe

Text us what you think about the podcast!

Andy, Emma, and Siobhan join Matt, embarking on a fascinating journey through the world of sparkling wines, exchanging stories, personal anecdotes, and some surprisingly informative insights on wine tasting.
First up, we blind-tasted six different sparkling wines, each of us rating them out of 25. Our conversation turned hilariously chaotic as we shared tales of our past boozy exploits. We grappled with the sweet versus dry wine debate, causing our scores to veer wildly from wine to wine.
Our scores and opinions diverged, igniting a spirited debate about the merits of each wine. Which sparkling wine will be the highest ranked? So join us as we raise several glasses of effervescent goodness, and who knows? You might even discover a new favorite bubbly. Cheers!
The sparkling wines we tasted:
Chardone Brut
Easton Wine Project Sparkling Wine
Korbel Extra Dry
Lamarca Prosecco
Scandi Frizzante
Verdi Spumante
