What's new

Cheap wines from the 70's/80's

All the above, and I vaguely remember "White Rocket" and "Red Rocket"!
I remember Red Rocket 21. It was 21% alcohol. It was only around for about a year before they took it off the market. I haven't been able to find any trace of it on the internet. I was trying to find a picture of an online, with no success.

Wild Irish Rose, Boones Strawberry Hill, and Brass Monkey 🙉 not sure if this was classified as wine but sold in the same aisle.

Boones Strawberry Hill for sure. What about Bartles and Jaymes wine coolers? Not for me, but my girlfriends loved them.
 
I remember not remembering some Gallo Port once. Never touched that stuff again.

Not wine but there was Hopin' Gator--"Tropical flavored malt liquor." It made for interesting times.
 
Here ya go boys, Jerry Jeff Walker's "Sangria"

Friends come for Saturday night
Man it's nice to make up some sangria wine
It's organic and it comes from the vine
Oh, and it's legal and it gets you so high
And I love that sangria wine
When I'm drinkin' with old friends of mine
Yeah I love that sangria wine
When I'm drinkin' with old friends of mine

Whoa oh oh, woah oh oh, I love sangria wine
Whoa oh oh, woah oh oh, I love sangria wine

Start with some apples and wine
Blend in some brandy and some sugar's fine
Yeah old friends always roll up on time
That's why you add sparkling Burgundy wine
Yeah I love that sangria wine
When I'm drinkin' with old friends of mine
Yeah I love that sangria wine
When I'm drinkin' with old friends of mine

Whoa oh oh, woah oh oh, I love sangria wine
Whoa oh oh, woah oh oh, I love sangria wine

In Austin on a Saturday night
Ever clear is dumped into the wine sometimes
Then you add nachos and tacos, burritos you know
Here is how it usually goes, it goes

Whoa oh oh, woah oh oh, I love sangria wine
Whoa oh oh, woah oh oh, I love sangria wine

All that's left to do is drink the wine
Just lay back and watch the time go by
Old friends tell the truth when mixed with the wine
That's why I blend in all the lemons and limes
Yeah I love that sangria wine
When I'm drinkin' with old friends of mine
Yeah I love that sangria wine
When I'm drinkin' with old friends of mine

Whoa oh oh, woah oh oh, I love sangria wine
Whoa oh oh, woah oh oh, I love sangria wine

You're welcome!
