🚣‍♂️ Cottage Jams and Drinks

Cottage Jam: Teenage Dream by Katy Perry

2010 Katy Perry was so good. 2009 Champagne was also very good. Unfortunately, only one of those things is still good in 2025, and it’s definitely not Katy Perry. This Champagne however, has aged enough to be a teenager itself (feel old yet?) and has all the energy and fun that Ms. Perry so eloquently described in what I believe to be her best song. A picturesque summer growing season provided ideal growing conditions for top-notch Champers. And the wine is super unique in that it’s 100% Chardonnay sourced from a sub-region that is normally known for growing Pinot Noir. My missing puzzle piece, if you will.
