I had a bottle of some red wine from Israel last Passover. The bottle was under $8. It knocked my socks off!

Of course, I forget the name of it and the Kosher Deli doesn't have it anymore.
 
The last time I went to Trader Joe's, it was still $2.00. You must be paying inflated prices in Vegas. It's been around for at least 2-3 years now, and so I'm surprised you are just now finding out about it. Before that, I bought wine at the 99¢ store, and it cost 99¢ and was as good as two buck Chuck. Some of the 99¢ or 98¢ stores have raised their prices to $1.48, which I think is horrendous.
 
Yes, I've heard of it. I've been a Trader Joe's fan for several years. Two Buck Chuck is surprisingly good. TJ's carries other good wines, and at very good prices. Have fun exploring!
 
Oy, like the yenta behind the counter cares what wine I like. She wants me to meet her daughter.

:eek:
 
I had some "Two Buck Church" and Trader Joe can keep it as far as I am concerned. It was almost as horrible in my opinion as wine from Capernaum I bought when I vivisted the Holy Land a long time ago. It clearly was no miracle, it wasn't even tolerable or passable or tasty.
Shep+
 
It couldn't be any worse than the wine they sell in cardboard boxes.
 
I too buy the Trader Joe Special varietal here in Las Vegas; but it's NOT $2 because of the special taxes we have here...

You know you can argue with the "wino's" of the world; but truth be known, the fact of the matter is that this $2 bottle of swill has really, really perked up the market so that more, and more people are actually trying/drinking wine now that it is uh affordable....ha ha!!

So, when this mixed bag of left-overs from the grapes of wrath of California comes to your local Trader Joe's give it a try....

Hey, it has even won awards and beat out the named brand bottlers....lol

Cheers/Prost/salute'...(*8*)(*8*):kiss::kiss:
 
Wine prices vary from place to place because of state and local liquor taxes.

I don't care for it at all. I once saw a friend pour a bottle of it down the sink when a guest brought it to his party. [-X It's better than other cheap wine like the stuff that comes in boxes, but that's not saying much. Still, I consider it one of those wines drunk by people who don't drink wine putting it in the same class with anything labeled "white zinfandel".

Just because it's won awards over more expensive wines, doesn't mean it (or those other wines) aren't crud.

If that makes me a wine snob, so be it. Everybody's gotta have standards :)
 
One time a big group of friends and I went on a trip to some cabins. We brought a bunch of alcohol, but for some reason, hardly anyone brought beer.

I was fine. I had my bread wine.

Some genius had the idea of bringing boxed wine.

We ended up using it to play "wine pong" instead of "beer pong."

People actually tried to win so that they wouldn't have to drink any of that shit.

I'll take "Two Buck Chuck" over boxed wine any day.
 
I try and keep a bunch of it, in the various varieties, in my pantry. I'm not a wine drinker, but I have to admit some of it is pretty tasty. And it is nice to give friends when they visit. :)

that reminds me...I need to go to Trader Joe's tonight.

Reminds me of an old college story :)

Every year a friend of mine donated money in her parents' names to some sort of non-profit organization then would give them a little card stating that as a gift. This particular year she wanted to pull a prank on them with the packaging though. Being that they were wine snobs, we bought a box of Franzia Chablis, took out the plastic bag of wine, put in some ballast, put in the card and wrapped the thing up. :twisted: Being relatively frugal college students, we figured we should drink the bag of wine. After about 1/3 of the bag or so in, we finally tossed it out. Yeck.
 
^^^It sounds like youse college guys had a LOT more $$$$'s than we did, because the college guys/gals I knew would drink ANYthing stronger than water!

I will NOT even go into the low-life alcohol we drank; but when you're poor, you're POOR!

Now I can pick and choose and drink the good stuff because I'm NOT into it just to get high and raise hell! lol(*8*)(*8*):kiss::kiss:
 
There was one year, I think it was the 2000 vintage, that the merlot was as good as any costing 10 times as much.

It was horrible, though, the next year....

You have to continually check it out, sometimes it's worth much more than the price.

Boy do I know this. How I love the Phillips brand...

I will never settle for the cheapest of cheap beer brands though. Milwaukee's Best and Natural Ice? I think fucking not.

Name brands? Pfffttt... When I was in college, we bought generic supermarket or drugstore liquor. Safeway Vodka (shudders). One of the more interesting results of going to college in California where liquor can be sold virtually anywhere.
