Today’s NYT Connections is a 1/5 on the Connections Bot difficulty scale and I found it quite easy, though I suppose if you’ve never been into wine the green words might be tough.

The weird thing about today’s Connections, to me at least, is the fact that Purple was the Old West poster and Blue was the Bunny Rabbit mascots. That feels totally backwards to me. Go figure.
