Purple Moon

A family friend brought over this bottle called Purple Moon.  The bottle says it's a Shiraz from California.

From my research, this bottle is a Trader Joe's exclusive and there is no actual Purple Moon winery.    It also looks like it cost about $4.00.

Gave me a decent buzz so I guess I'm not complaining.

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.
