Really not that bad. No tannins, really fruity, probably some extra RS in there. But for 2.99 not sure what more you could want

First time ever trying 2 buck chuck. Considering value for money, it's really not that bad. Synthetic vanilla, coconut, none of that awful weird "cheap wine" acidity, really not awful.

Cheap but does the trick. Not horrible... Not fabulous.... Better than expected for the price point.

Taste is very mild, tastes like a cheap wine but for 3 bucks what can I say. Not sure how people were grabbing by the case, 1 was enough for me.

Cabernet Sauvignon-ruby, some edge variation
Plum, dark fruits, a bit more fruit forward. Some tobacco, nice complexity. Lower tannin, soft, full mouth feeling. Fruity on mouth

#KWN Wine 2. A jammy fruit bomb. Sweet and syrupy, but not off-putting. A bit thin and lacking complexity. From the nose alone we all knew it was the usual Trader Joe's bottle snuck in. However, enjoyable and a high QPR. You put this in a decanter on the table and nobody would ever guess they were drinking Two Buck Chuck.

Decent wine. I'd drink it again. Found it on my practically empty wine rack!
