RE: Then there's Two Buck Chuck...(nt)

I think that is sold directly to TJ's at a national level (although I might be wrong.) So there is no distributor to take his/her cut. Still, just trucking it around the country has gotten expensive.

A friend suggested the Aussie govt is subsidizing the wine industry and that may explain the $5.00 a bottle cost. Spain also had lots of gov't subsidies going on...not sure if that still happens.
