As many people know Charles Shaw wines are at the price of $1.99, also referred to as "2 Buck Chuck". The price over time, much like other things, has risen, but in California, where 2 Buck Chuck is from, the price remains at $1.99. In Virginia the price is $3.29 though. The vintage is 2011. This wine has a floral nose with hints of fruity undertone. It doesn't really have a continuing finish. I much more prefer other Charles Shaw wines than this one. It is nothing extremely special, but it is pretty good for the price. There are a lot of lemony notes to this wine both to the nose and also the palate. It isn't really complex. The reviews online are pretty complimentary comparing the taste to the price. I feel if it were more expensive though people would not be as intrigued by this wine. It would still pair nicely with a salty cheese. Overall not a bad wine, but I would recommend trying one of Charles Shaw's other wines.
