The award-winning $6.96 bottle we all fell in love with is now BACK with a 2016 vintage in more than 500 Walmart locations across the U.S. The original vintage, despite its insanely low price point, beat out 16,000 other entries in blind taste tests and scored a 95 out of 100, making it the only wine you should be serving this Thanksgiving.
Heck, you might as well stock up and give it to coworkers, Secret Santas, and holiday part hosts.

When I shop for a bottle of wine, I typically have one thing in mind: price. (Bonus points if the bottle has a cool label.) Which is why so many of us flock to Wal-Mart for booze. But, let's face it, when you spend a few bucks on a bottle, you're not expecting fireworks on your palate. (Which is exactly what all of these summer rosés could do.)
Turns out, one of the budget-friendly reds that Wal-Mart's UK grocery chain, Asda, sells just earned a crazy-prestigious Platinum Best in Show at the Decanter World Wine Awards. Tested by a panel of 240 global wine experts, La Moneda Reserva Malbec was reported to be "an absolute crowd-pleaser" with a strong "succulent juicy berry" flavor.
Good news: the British retailer sells the wine direct from its website. Bad news: it's (unsurprisingly) sold out, and Wal-Marts in the U.S. don't currently sell it. In the meantime, we can wait until bottles *hopefully* come back into stock.
