Ahhh… cheap wine. Today was one of those days. Ten hours at work; foot to the floor all day trying to get it done for the man. Rather than settle in with a beer, my girlfriend scored a bottle of Fish Eye Cabernet Sauvignon. We like to pretend we’re living it up every now and then. You would be surprised how decent a bottle of wine with a screw top costing fewer than six bucks can taste. My dad is a wine junkie and will spend whatever it costs to enjoy a nice bottle. Although, a bottle of two-buck-chuck would have sufficed since it was that kind of day, I really enjoyed Fish Eye. It wasn’t harsh like you’d expect an inexpensive wine to be and tasted like a Cab should. I think it is fun enjoying inexpensive wines. It really beats being disappointed with a pricier bottle, and even if you’re disappointed you’re only out six bucks. Next time you find yourself at the grocery store and you’re thinking of wine, there’s nothing to be ashamed of going for a bottle under ten bucks. Even a $200.00 bottle can turn with a bad cork. Pick a label that catches your eye and drink what you like with whatever you’re eating. I recommend starting a wine journal to document what you like and what you don’t like. With so many labels out there they’re easy to forget.
