As is the case with these things the battle over Two Buck Chuck having Napa on the label has finally been
settled. The wines, officially called Charles Shaw made the headlines as being of (generally) reasonable to good
quality at just $1.99.
A lawsuit was brought against the producers, Bronco Wine Co., by the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control after a request from the Napa Valley Vintners trade group. The wines label ran counter to a 6 year old state law that at least 75% of the grapes used to make wine must be grown in the county named on the label.
Bronco Wine Co. agreed to drop "Napa" from the label of a wine made with grapes grown outside Napa
Valley wine region. Two of Bronco's Napa-named wines will contain Napa grapes, the company said.
