I believe they would like some of that 2 buck chuck action, and who could blame them? Two Buck Chuck aka Charles Shaw has several varitals, while the new Three Wishes is available in 3, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Merlot. I don't usually drink Merlot, but they were out of Cabernet and I HATE Chardonnay. I'm gonna do my best to review it anyway.
First, I'll say this, sadly it is NOT Cabernet. So I'm already disappointed. It's mildly flavored, smooth, with red currant and earth flavors (read a little acidic, for lack of a better word). Did I already say that it is not Cabernet?
I wont buy the Merlot again, but it wasn't terrible. If you like Merlot, you might like this? I don't really know.
I don't really know how to end this. Sometimes you get what you pay for. I'm not drunk or feeling happy so this bottle was a fail. But it was win for the pocket book.
Can't wait to hear about the cab. Merlot and Chardonnay can SUCK IT.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping to pick up by Friday. I'm also doing an absolute sparkling wine review, so stay tuned!
DeleteNot a fan of Merlot...but at 2 bucks a bottle, I would be tempted to stick a straw in and have at it.
ReplyDeleteIn a pinch, me too ;)
Delete"VARIETALS" - wines come in VARIETALS, not flavors. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love that you reviewed a $2 wine! You are awesome. But I think they stole the logo from The Birthday Project!
Thank you, you are awesome for letting me know the correct word, so I don't look like a complete idiot! I updated :)
