I bought a bottle of the Purple Moon Shiraz 2008 when I visited the recently-opened Trader Joe’s in Corvallis. I thought it would be questionable at best for the price of $3.99! So wrong – now just need to find a source in Idaho! Nice smooth taste – really enjoyed it!

A friend had a wine tasting party (with everything in paper bags so you didn’t know what you were drinking) and the P. Moon Shiraz was THE favorite, up against $40 bottles of wine!! We couldn’t believe it. I love it….never been disappointed in a bottle I’ve bought. Have never tried the other varietals, and haven’t seen it anywhere but TJ’s. Love this wine for everyday drinking!

I tried the 2005 Purple Moon Shiraz from Trader Joe’s. Very nice wine for the price. I would definitely recommend it! Love Trader Joe’s!!

I just had my first bottle of shiraz and loved it more than any other wine I have had. I am going to TJ’s to stock up. Shiraz is very nice wine and am glad I found you all discovered it too.

I love this wine. Usually drink it everyday if I have it. Usually buy at Total Wine but bought all they had and they have not re-stocked yet. I getting low with my stock. Tried the Merlot but not a big fan of it. It’s 3.99 @ TW and they have a 10% case discount.

Where to begin…ok: This wine is AWESOME!!!!!!

What a fantastic potion for only $3.99/bottle (at TJ’s, Brookline, MA). This bottle is superior to other bottles I’ve had that cost several times more.

It is a fabulous wine! I score it 10/10.

I agree, Out of the cheap wines I have tried (all from TJ’s) Purple moon Merlot is delicious for it’s price. Thanks

I finally made it to a TJ’s on a trip to Cleveland this weekend, and thanks to this site, I made a beeline for the Purple Moon Shiraz. Your assessment is right on par. While it may be a little dry on its own, paired with food, it is outstanding. I haven’t tried the salsa yet, but I can say the shiraz is a nice contrast to TJ’s Pinjur (a wonderful eggplant-tomato-pepper sauce/dip). I get the impression that this wine would pair well with any tomato-based food as the combo makes both flavors pop. Tremendous thanks for the great recommendation. I can’t wait to uncork the PM Merlot!

I did enjoy the 2005 pmoon but Im not so sure if i could drink it all the time. I will bring it to a friends house for others to evaluate. I do love fat bastard & wish it would come down in price.
