Grocery Wine

You’ve probably spotted this one on the bottom shelf at your local grocery store with a price somewhere under $4.  Four dollar wine?  I figured there was a decent chance I might go blind from drinking the cheap stuff but in the name of science (and cheapskatedness) I thought I’d give it a try.  Because of the inherent danger involved in drinking this stuff I thought it prudent to slip Amy the first glass (who’d update Grocery Wine if I didn’t survive?).  Here’s how it went down:

Phil: Hey honey, want a glass of chardonnay?
Amy:  Sure, what kind is it?
Phil:  Sea Ridge Chardonnay
Amy:  Is it supposed to be good?
Phil:  Did you hear Lithuania elected its first female president?

The final verdict:  Surprisingly drinkable!  It’s definitely sweeter than you’d expect from a chardonnay but still tasty.  Perhaps the perfect wine for sipping on the patio or deck on a hot summer day.  Give it a try and let us know your thoughts in the comments.
