One Advantage Of Boxed Wine
When it comes to making a decision between a bottle of wine or a box of wine (also known as bag-in-box, or BIB), many people opt for the bottle. Boxed wine has a reputation of being, let’s be honest, not that great. Memories of Franzia might be to blame.
Even though the boxed wine market has been on the rise, and these days it’s being touted as a good value for a solid product, the bottle still holds the people’s trust.
Bottled wine has centuries of tradition behind it, so our attachment to it makes sense. But we’ve found one very good reason to buck tradition and go for the box: after opening, boxed red or white wine stays good for four to six weeks. And that traditional bottle of wine can sour after just one week.
That’s a big difference.
