Who says fine wine has to be expensive? An $11 bottle of wine from Sam's Club has been ranked as one of the best in the world, earning an impressive rating from Wine Enthusiast [1]. The website, which covers all things wine and spirits, has declared Sam's Club's Member's Mark Riesling White Wine [2] as a top pick for its "easygoing yet zesty" flavors. The descriptive review calls out the "juicy, fruity enjoyment" you'll experience thanks to the "semidry tangerine and apricot flavors . . . slicked in honey and a touch of graphite." Um, yes, please! The fruity white wine also has a 9.5 percent ABV and comes in a 1.5-liter bottle large enough for you and plenty of friends.
This wouldn't be the first time that a bottle of cheap wine has been ranked as one of the best worldwide. Just last year, La Moneda Reserva's Malbec [4], an award-winning red wine sold at Walmart, went viral when it received the same coveted honor by Decanter magazine.
According to contributing editor Anna Lee C. Iijima, Sam's Club's Riesling has a "brisk but clean" finish. "Drink now," she advised. Be right back while we go purchase several bottles for ourselves.
