How do you find if the two Buck Chuck wine is sold in your area? It is sold at Trader Joe's to call your local Trader Joe's and ask. (If you do not know if you have a Trader Joes or number, go to Google Maps maps.google.com and click on business. So you can enter Trader Joe in the business section and your city and state in the address section. It will then show you where in your town they are located and what is the figure.)

People Trader Joe's will probably know what you are talking about if you say "Two-Buck Chuck," but if they are not the real name is Charles Shaw wine.

Trader Joes Check. It is the only place I've seen. (In California)
Google it!
Charles Shaw is an American brand of "extreme value" wine produced in California.
These wines are currently Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and, more recently, Syrah and Valdigue in the style of Beaujolais nouveau, all the vineyards of California. They are exclusively distributed by grocery stores Trader Joe's, and California sell for $ 1.99. For this reason, the Charles Shaw wines are affectionately known as two Buck Chuck.
With the three-tier system, in other states the price can go up to about $ 4. As such, the wine is often referred to as "Three Buck Chuck" or "Four Buck Chuck" relative to the price.
Charles Shaw is an example of the recent trend of wine drinkers saving spirit seeking the greatest value. In particular, the brand stands not only for the low cost but also for the respectable packaging and semi-frequent high ratings at wine tasting, at the 28th Annual International Eastern Wine Competition, For example, Shaw 2002 Shiraz received the double gold medal, besting the roughly 2,300 other wines in the competition.

Get it at Trader Joes! It is the only place. And the label will actually say Charles Shaw.
It is sold exclusively at Trader Joe's. His name is Charles Shaw, but people call it 2 Buck Chuck. A Trader Joe's just opened in my town, and it is called 3 Buck Chuck. I think in some places it is $ 2 and in others it is $ 3. The link below will tell you if there is a location near you, or if it will open soon. Oh, and by the way, is the wine impressive.
