Here's The Deal With Target's New Cheap Wines

This is v. important.

As you're all probably aware by now, Target has a new line of $5 wines that's about to make every headline about millennials drinking too much wine come true.

It comes in a total of five varietals and is sold at every Target store nationwide that carries liquor.

the only thing i'm thinking about right now is how target had $5 wine and i'm gonna get some after i get off work tomorrow

There are three whites and two reds: Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Moscato, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Red Blend.

And to reiterate: Every bottle is just $5. 👀

As both a wino and a perpetually broke twentysomething, I decided to get a few coworkers together to find out if they tasted low-quality or if they were the new holy grail of tasty, cheap wine. 🤔

First up was the Pinot Grigio, which smelled like apple juice, tasted crisp AF, and had a solid bang for your buck, booze-wise. 🍎

The Moscato legit tasted like candy, which some of us actually liked.

The Chardonnay tasted kinda ~expensive~ — aka not overwhelmingly sweet.

We couldn't figure out what the "blend" part of the Red Blend varietal referred to, but this was hella boozy at 13.5%, which is really all we cared about. 🙄

The Cabernet was equally boozy and slightly savory (aka would pair well with a meat lover's pizza).
