Ask Yahoo! attempted to answer this question last Wednesday and to debunk some interesting myths.
The real answer is pretty boring: there’s too much supply and not enough demand. Also, Two-Buck Chuck is likely made from cheaper grapes from Central Valley rather than Napa.
And yes, Charles Shaw is an actual person.

I’d love to try a bottle of the Chuck. Unfortunately, our nearby Trader Joe’s can’t sell alcohol due to the state liquor laws, and the state-run stores don’t carry it.
