The Perils of Cheap Wine

At the grocery store last night I wanted to pick up some cheap wine. I found a $7 bottle of "Merlot" (yeah... "cheap" in NYC is a relative term, I suppose), but when I opened later that night it I noticed its color was slightly weaker than usual. That's when I saw, in small font on the bottom of the label, the note "Wine Product - 6% alcohol". Sigh!! The ingredients were listed as red wine, water, sugar, and some other stuff. It doesn't taste terrible, but it certainly doesn't taste like red wine. Oh well. Next time I will pay more attention. :-)
