Sheila came home today from Target with this bottle of wine. When I asked her why in the world she bought it, she told me that it just looked “cute”. I seriously can’t believe after all of the wine we’ve enjoyed she STILL falls for stuff like that. Here’s the worst part, for less than $10, it’s not total crap. Don’t get too excited… it’s not amazing either. I think it has something to do with the alcohol level… most wines that are less than 13.5% usually aren’t totally hideous.
Try this test the next time you try a bottle of wine just because it has a cool label or whatever: check the alcohol content and tell me if my theory is true.
Does lower alcohol wine suck less?
