I’ll admit becoming a bit of a snob after I discovered the world of wines. I used to think it was a matter of types of grapes and wine was wine. So I bulk bought the $4 Charles Shaw red wines and settled on the Cabernet Sauvignon; Pinot Noir are hard to find now.
But after a while sampling finer wines in the $30-50 range…I noticed CS didn’t taste that great and shunned them for a bit.
I’ve come full circle and while they don’t taste as good and probably never did, I can appreciate that they were the gateway to the wine world and I still keep a bottle of Charles Shaw - Cabernet Sauvignon as a reminder of my humble beginnings.
Yes, I’ve tried every version of Charles Shaw and settled on Cabernet’s as the best deal.
