Wine Snobbery No Longer Blocks the Box
In appealing box of wine, elegant inexpensive wine, elegant wines, fashionable boxed wine, good boxed wines, inexpensive good wine, Target wine cube, wine cubes wine in a box on 20/08/2008 at 6:37 pmIt is environmentally-friendly, user-friendly, and fun: wine in a box now has appeal for nearly everyone! The boxed wine is contained in a “bladder”, and the wine is dispensed through a tap that pops out of the box. Aussies and New Zealanders have been drinking boxed wine for many years, and California has offered good, ready-to-drink wines for the refrigerator and counter-top for a long time. Wine snobs and Francophiles can reassure themselves knowing that in France it is standard to keep a box o’rosé on-tap in the fridge. Good wine brands come in three-liter units. A red wine that doesn’t need to age can sit on a counter-top in your kitchen, ready for guests to tap, or for dispensing into an elegant glass decanter. The wine stays fresh because there is no air in the bladder, unlike when you pop a cork on a heavy glass bottle. Speaking of heavy glass, there is much less breakage and fewer bottles in your domicile with a handy box of good wine. To dispose of the container, cut and fold the box, “recycle” it, and toss the now-tiny bladder that used to hold your excellent wine. Napa Valley, California makes some excellent boxed wines.
