We all know it's inferior, but it's the only Champagne most people know. I'm so jealous of the things you say. I only think them popping corks in my corporate hell. I hope to have my own wine shop one day. And I won't let any of that crap in. I hate having to sell Veuve. We all know it’s inferior, but it’s the only Champagne most people know.

I always feel like a snake oil salesman charging people $100 for Veuve in our restaurant. I wonder if you’re going to get press and emails from the big brands now?

It was awesome. I thought it was worth way more than white star, which I usually drink. I'm not good with wine descriptions, but it was creamy, and fruity, and yeasty, and many more -ys. I get it now. Do you have any favorites? I just had a bottle of Camille Saves for under $40. It was awesome. I thought it was worth way more than white star, which I usually drink.

Because you say the shit those of us who still have to deal with the Cliquots and the Paternos rep cannot say. RM Champagne, fuck yeah. Anyone with a palate knows there is nothing better. And JJ - Saves rhymes with a lot: auras, high rez, the prez, simon says, pez, Cortez. But I prefer Gimmonet. You know why we love you so much?

Can you imagine if Jay-Z started rapping about 'my man Pierre Peters', or 'tripping like I'm on Saves'? Somebody needs to send that man a sample or eight. JJ Jesus lord, Maggie,
