I had the pleasure of enjoying a few sips of vino this afternoon (the perks of working at an ad agency, I guess). This week's theme was boxed wine. Wine connoisseurs, don't fret or wrinkle your nose at the notion of wine in a box. Boxed wine is becoming very popular and it's a very practical and economical way to enjoy one of nature's greatest creations. But not all boxed wine is created equal. Some have undesirable outcomes (one day, I may share the my Franzia wine story with the masses, but I'll keep it to myself for now). But there are some boxed wines that deserve a few more sips, or gulps, however you choose to consume.
Today, I tried Wine Cube from Target. Target calls it "the perfect, low cost answer for everyday wine lovers ..." Believe me, I love wine, and I love it everyday. Pictured below is a Sauvignon Blanc, but I today, tried a Malbec. At first, I wasn't sure I could really get with the taste, but after a few swishes, I was impressed. Target also has Pinot Noir, Riesling and Cabernet Sauvignon. Unfortunately, I live in Kansas and Kansas Targets, or Kansas grocery stores for that matter, can not sell wine or liquor. So if I want to try any of these varieties, I will have to venture over to a Target across State Line. But I think it would be perfect for float trips, camping, picnics or just any occasion where a glass bottle just won't do.
Next time you're in the mood for an inexpensive wine, without all the fuss, check out the Wine Cube.
