Charles Shaw Wines

Greetings!

How would you rate their Shiraz and Cabs?

[TheEngineer]

The wines are made by a company called Bronco, which is the US's fourth largest winery. They also make other brands such as Searidge and Canyon Oak. For $2.99, you could do a lot worse. In fact for me the whites are decent, again given the price.

[californiagirl]

eh.

Sorry, I cannot drink their reds. They give me an upset stomach. (This being after 3 totally separate instances.)

[wdonovan]

Yes but they leave you a lot of money for medicine.

Welcome to the board there WashW. They are the flagship wine of Trader Joes. Affectionately known in Calif as "2-Buck Chuck". Here in Az they sell for 2.99. IMHO they represent good P/Q but like CG not my cuppa'. WW

My "2-Buck Chuck" when I lived California, became "3-Buck Chuck" here in Oregon.

I actually like these wines, and for the price... Wow!

I often joke that I'm blessed with liking plenty of wines I can buy at Trader Joes ;-)
