We drink wine from a box


Tonight’s tasting will put your former perceptions of box wine to shame. Join us tonight from 6 to 9pm to taste a white Burgundy and red Bordeaux. Don't forget to tap the bag. Kidding... these bags are stored inside trendy wooden boxes.

Aside from the aesthetic appeal--it's sure to start a convo at your next party, box wine really does make sense. It's economical, ecological, and it preserves. The bag holds three liters—the equivalent of four bottles of wine, at a much lower price. The wood is made of out of recycled wood. We hope you'll continue the cycle. Also, the wine stays fresh longer because it's a tighter seal--oxygen can't seep in and ruin the bold Bordeaux.

The white Burgundy “Bourgogne Blanc” by Château du Chatelard, “Chardonnay Vieilles Vignes” screams to be sipped in the summer—a crisp, detailed wine with lime, green plum and herbal notes and good length.

The red Bordeaux Côtes de Francs, Château Moulin de Rouquille, “Cuvée L’Esperance” will definitely extend well through the cool fall season. Tarry and rich with lots of fruit, it’s a full-bodied Côtes de Francs with chewy tannins and a medium finish.

Start the trend. Drink wine from a box.
