As I said before here, it is $3.29 here in VA. When we went to try/purchase
2-buck, we purchased all the different types they carried. I can't recall
that we threw any away, perhaps the Shiraz the next day that tasted funny
even after pumping it. But this morning we did throw this out after just
tasting on a glassful -

"Chateau Michel de Vert Lussac $7.99, 2004, Grand Vin de Bordeaux red
bordeau, Lussac St. Emilion region. Vienifié & mis en bot. Blend of 80%
merlot & 20% cabernet Franc"



Yes, my fault, of course, expecting a wine from France @ $7.99 to be
drinkable. Phewweeee.

I'll take 2-buck anyday to that!
