Lessee... I'm already a native speaker of Spanish (my mother's from Venezuela), and can at least understand Italian, Portuguese and French, since they're linguistically similar. The German I picked up courtesy of a tour to 'Spang-Quentin' AB, Germany (Spangdahlem, for the humorless) over 20 years ago. I was half-tempted to bark ­¡A sus ordenes, mi General! (At your orders, General!) to General Pineda at the SWR conference last week, but discretion being the better part of valor...  ;D[/i]

Now back to who's 'Two Buck Chuck'...

"Two Buck Chuck" is the moniker for a new line of California wines sold under the Charles Shaw label. The wines in the line include a Cabernet, Merlot, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. Each is packaged in a reasonably expensive-looking bottle with a real cork (well, a "real" synthetic cork) and a nice foil capsule. The kicker is that the full retail price of Two Buck Chuck is $1.99 a bottle.

More here, here, and here. Find where to buy it here.

Nah. Two-Buck-Chuck actually tastes good. I had my fair share of the stuff on that site, and wouldn't touch any of it these days.

The bad part is that it's got a limited market area now, so opportunities to sample it may be limited for many forum members.

Two Buck Chuck: I have the remnants of two cases of it in my garage.  Not bad stuff: bought it at Trader Joe's in Fresno.
