The Most Expensive Bottle Of Wine At Trader Joe`s Costs As Much As 44 Bottle Of Three Buck Chuck
Trader Joe`s is best known for Two - or Three - Buck Chuck when it comes to wine. However, the budget grocery chain also has some seriously pricey options.
The most expensive bottle of wine at Trader Joe`s wine shop in New York City costs a whopping $131.99.
The bottle in question is Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame - a champagne that Wine Spectator has called a `delicately woven tapestry of black currant, piecrust, chalk, spring blossom and lemon zest flavors ends with a lasting note of smoke-tinged minerality.` It`s a champagne only released in years that Veuve Clicquot's harvest meets the highest standards, worthy of the Grande Dame - Barbe Nicole Ponsardin, Madame Veuve Clicquot, a key player in the champagne`s history.
While $131.99 seems like a lot of pay at a place best known for $2.99 bottles of wine, it`s a pretty reasonable for La Grande Dame, based on other retailer`s prices. When selling non-house brand wines, Trader Joe`s keeps costs lower than the competition thanks to its no-frills design and never offering deals - meaning, reduced cost mark up.
