The Palate Evolution Begins
You never know when the development of a palate will occur. Around the New Year, my daughter invited several friends and their parents to our house for a celebratory dinner. Morgan requested that she and her friends have “kids sparkling wine” a.k.a. non-alcohol sparkling. So we grabbed a bottle of Ariel Brut Cvuee and the kids raised a toast.

It was interesting to figure out that my super taster decided that the aforenamed non-alcoholic wine tasted like “and to quote non-usual wine terms” – her throw up. Actually, of the three kids involved, only one declared it “palatable” or at least good enough for another sip. With all due respect to Ariel, they have won numerous awards and the individual who sold my husband the bottle told him it was the best non-alcoholic sparkling they carried (my husband did not inform him it was for youngsters).
Happy New Year and here’s a resolution to age appropriate people drinking age appropriate beverages that taste good.
Just like an overtaster to be oversensitive to the taste of their barf. (Don’t worry, one day that barf will taste like a minerally grapefruit with a slight hint of oak and blueberries.) Great story to start the New Year – cheers.
I truly expect you will win the best response of the year – love it and laughing. Cheers!
Ha. Love it! Perhaps next year stick to the generic Martinellis sparkling apple or grape… my nieces loved it… possibly because it is so darn sweet it may as well be soda!
