Cook’s Extra Dry: Review


California Champagne
11.5% abv

This is a cheap grocery store bubbly.  I picked it up for 6 or 7 bucks; on sale. 

Appearance: yellow diamond with plenty of bubbles rising from the bottom of the glass.

Aroma: dusty orange peel, pear, apple

Flavors: sweet pear, a mix of pink lady apple and green apple, a light lemon meat note on the back of the palate.

Mouthfeel: seems more like a sec or dry than extra dry.  Sweet notes on the delivery with a light dry feel on the finish. 


To the Point: seems like a fun bubbly, I think this would be good for one to try and then decide if they want to go dryer or sweeter in style. 

It is only a seven dollar bottle of bubbly but, if you don’t drink Champagne often or you may want to try some for the first time – then, this could be for you.  This would be a good introductory bubbly and it is easy to find.
