Love don't pay no bills.

Having learnt that the $1.99 wines at Lucky are not my thing, I decided to try a $3.99 wine at Trader Joe's. Two dollars may make a difference, right?

Mount Linden cabernet sauvignon.

Such a pretty label. It looked promising.

After two glasses, this is what I ended up doing:

It wasn't much better than the Fox Brook wines I had blogged about a while back.

From now on, the only time I'm buying super-cheap wine is when it is marked down to rock-bottom prices.

Right now, I'm drinking a glass of good wine. I'll post more about it on another day.

Another one bites the dust.

The Fox Brook merlot didn't work out.

Lucky supermarket carries a line of $1.99 wines called Fox Brook. After doing a little searching on the web, I learnt that Fox Brook is owned by the same folks who put out Charles Shaw, aka Two-Buck Chuck.

I was so excited to try this wine because of the price. But after drinking half of the bottle of cab sauv over this past weekend, this is what I ended up doing tonight:

I hope Fox Brook merlot fares better.
