We picked up 5 Black Box wines to taste and find the best one to bring to a party….or drink at home.

Black Box “Red Blend” came out on top with the Pinot Noir a close second and the Merlot running 3rd.

The Cabernet from Chile and the Malbec from California, can stay at the store.

We tasted 3 Zinfandels from Trader Joe’s that are under $10 and one that is just over $10 all lined up on the shelf at Trader Joe’s. The winner, Seven Deadly Zin was slightly above $10 at $12.99. We thought it would win based on price alone and the results of the blind tasting confirmed our theory.
