What 2 Buck Chuck wine is the best. Merlot, Cabernet or the Chardonnay?
Answers:
None of the above. But you must be looking for a cheap buzz, so it would depend on whether you are having a Big Mac, or Fish Sandwich.
While I don't particularly care for them, I do believe the Merlot is the best.
For just a couple of dollars more though they have some good wines. Try some of the Italian varieties for only about $4.00 per bottle.
It all comes to preference, I think Charles Shaw's best is the Merlot. The Cab and Card taste like panther piss. That being said, Charles Shaw doesn't make any truly palatable wines for the ages but in a pinch over of quick dinner, the Merlot will definitely suffice
Riunite Lambrusco about $6.00
It's so cheap,buy a bottle of each and have a wine tasting.
The Merlot is probably the best right out of the bottle. The Cab is actually fine, for a $3 wine, if you can decant it for awhile.
Stick to Thunderbird or Maddog 20/20
Ugh, seriously, I don't consider myself a connesour in the least, but I do own my own wine shop. I wouldn't ever touch that slop. I think you'd be better off with (eech) Kendall Jackson over that crap.
the reds are more conistent and taste better than their whites. And the Shiraz is probably the best of the bunch. Won a silver medal from the San Francisco Chronicle a few years back.
one thing to keep in mind is that any of them taste like watered down versions of the grape they are supposed to be. I don't find them to be overly flavorful. Pay a few bucks more and buy something from Fetzer Valley Oaks. Better wine, under $10 available everywhere.
<>Buy some decent wine, you drunk.
It might be a little more than 2 bucks but try Robertson from South Africa or even Torres from Spain. Terribly good wine for a reasonable price.
Merlot is suppose to be better for you.
