Two Buck Chuck Takes A Bite Out of Napa - Sep. 7, 2007

This is seriously cool stuff. Apparently the venerable Two Buck Chuck has won best Chardonnay at the California State Fair. This is an interview with Fred Franzia, head of Bronco Wine, the folks behind this phenomenon. He rags on several wineries, including Simi, which I happen to like, but given his ability to create a wine that tastes good and doesn’t cost a whole lot, I’ll give him that one.

They mention Yellow Tail, which I can’t stand… their wines just seem too harsh to me… perhaps if I let them age a bit before drinking. Anyway… the link above is a great article about the wizard of cheap wine.
