Was just in Chi-town this weekend, and visited my first Trader Joe's.
LOVED IT. Wish they'd get one here in Cedar Rapids. Anyway, my in-laws heard about $2-Chuck wine from some friends, and wanted some. They bought a case. Note,it's now $3 Chuck. 2.99/bottle. If I remember to post, I'll let you know what they think. They have really gotten into wine the last few years.
I love sweet wines. White: Moscato D'Asti and late harvest Gewürztraminer. Red: Lambrusco. (I have been known to drink entire bottles of this at a sitting.
) Most Zins are OK too.
I don't drink a whole lot, but I do prefer wine to beer.
