has anyone ever found a decent wine in a box?
 

it has to exist..i know it.

unicorn?

All of them... Of course I drink Wild Irish Rose too!

Black box is pretty tasty. I was at a friends house and it was in the kitchen. He said draw a glass and taste it, it was good, so was the second glass and the third, and the fourth.....

any wine hiked into the high uintas is good. even box wine.

Dude... doode... duuuuuuuuuuuude...

Even I am too snooty to drink wine in a box!

Friend got back from Temecula... told me about wine tasting and $35 bottles of wine... I was uncorking a $6 bottle of wine,
"Hey can I have some of that?"
"uh, sure."
He liked it!

Franzia...

Bring a box to Beers'.

Nothing wrong with wine in a box.

Get a small hand held aerator and it'll make them even better.

Bota Box Old Vine Zinfandel is my current favorite. Is only a three liter box though.

Black Box is OK. I use it for my less sophisticated friends and family.

Unfortunately, they usually prefer the bottles I bring...

boxed wines have been making a comeback, same wine as in the bottle (with screwtop or plastic cork) but in an air tight decanter. Lasts longer (unless your scottmandue).
Beer I can get in a 1 gallon plastic dispensers at any brew pub. It's a wonderful life.

I am going to go down to my cellar now & tell my lovelies that bad, misguided people exist in the world . . . :cool: :cool:

I don't drink the crap in a box but my wife seems to find the Black Box Chardonnay to be palatable, which saves me from uncorking something from France every night, which benefits my wallet greatly.

She was raised in Sonoma county, so she'll drink most anything from California.

i have this right now. it taste watered down. sorta.

huh... that is exactly what i've thought about every boxed red wine i've ever had (about three).

Okay you heathens. The first one of you left-coast wine box drinkers that makes it to Toronto when I am 'in house' is formally invited to dinner where we will partake in the pictured bottle (the same small plot of ground as Randy's joke pic). And 1999 was a good year . . .

I am prepared to prove to you, that wine should come out of a bottle.

i've always wanted to go to toronto.....

Well, Hugh was a near miss recently. His/my scheduling got in the way - not that I am accusing Hugh of being a left-coast wine box drinker. :D The bottle will sit until I have a taker . . .

Ian

will the bottle sit upright like that? or at a slight angle so as to keep the cork wet?

Horizontal like its cellar mates. And it is French. A truly regal Burgundian although the negociant is not in the hyper-class.
