Can Wine in a Box be Good?

The answer is Yes!

Boxed wine is a hot new packaging trend. Even writers on Forbes.com are talking about it. A large variety of premium wine companies are boxing their wines, so you don’t have to worry about quality, and boxed wine stays fresh a minimum of four weeks. And there is a big environmental benefit: the total energy used to produce one box is about 1/3 the energy to produce a bottle.

Read more about boxed wines and a few you can try at New Leaf Community Markets. Did you know that Westside New Leaf has free wine or tastings every Friday from 5 -7 pm? Great way to sample and educate your palette! Learn more about the tastings on facebook.
