Black Swan

This bottle of Merlot I tried is from South Eastern Australia.  It's made by Black Swan.

It goes for about $7.00 and was pretty good.  There's really no good reason for why I chose this bottle other than it was cheap.

Doesn't really stand out too much in my mind, but it's not bad either.

Fox Grove

This tiny bottle of Fox Grove I happened to try in flight from IAD to LAS yesterday.  I couldn't find an actual site for this winery.  I can tell you that it is a red wine.  Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon from South Eastern Australia.

I didn't really drink it for taste, as my goal was to get as drunk as possible (it was a 5 hour flight).  But at $7.00 a bottle for 187ML, that was definitely not going to happen.

Would I buy it again? Maybe.  Not on board an aircraft though.
