I found that same cheese at TJ's a few days ago

 

will try it today.   dont have any decent bread  but well

 

these are challenging times.

 

Ive been looking for a decent red table wine.  I tried previously 6 or so

 

I did try several new to me table Reds , by the wine dept recommendation "

 

when I picked up a load of my two whites :

these are inexpensive Table Reds , not ChitChat wines

 

the Roustabout and Phigment are very very similar , very hard to tell a significant difference when tasted side-by-side

 

the VF is noticeably harsher , to my discerning palate.

 

prices :   VF  $ 4.99 ,   Roustabout $ 7.99 ,  Phigment $ 5.99

 

Im going w several cases of the Phigment , as I couldn't taste any reasonable difference between it and Routabout

 

2 $$   doesnt seem like a lot , I would have gone w it if there was a significant difference 

 

but there was not to me

 

after a few ( many many ) bottles , $ 2  adds up.
