Consumerism Commentary: Frugal Wines

  • savvy saver · 4 years ago
    There's a great winery near my house that I love going to. They have a fall grape stomp with lots of wine, food, live music... it's wonderful. Most of their wines (including my two favorites) are under $10.

    I usually just stick to Charles Shaw at Trader Joes for $2 :) I can tell $5 wine from $50+ wine, but that's about it.

    My friends bought a bottle of port from Brotherhood Winery - i don't know how much it cost but it was pretty good.

    See, this is where I lucked out. I am not a wine connoisseur by any stretch of the imagination. I can tell Pinot Grigio from Pinot Noir but that's about it. I can't tell a 1983 wine from a 1968 one and I definitely can't tell which bottle has been exposed to the wrong temperature. It saves me a lot of money.
