Thunderbird isn't too bad compared to Mad Dog (Mogen David 20/20). If you
really want to hit the pits, though, sometime try (preferably with someone
else's palate!!!!) Blackjack, which is a cheap Florida wine, made of
oranges, and so named because it's 21% alcohol. Bleaghhhhh!!!!!

I rather like some of the boxed wines. My favorite of them is the Franzia
Cabernet Sauvignon, though it would be a bit dry for most palates. Their
Burgundy is quite drinkable as well, although I've been wondering lately
what they mean by "Natural Flavors added". Pressed and fermented grapes are
unnatural flavors?
