I'm Sold (and mildly tipsy) on Black Box Wines
Posted Thu November 26, 2009 12:00 pm, by Angela N. written to Black Box Wines
Boxed wine. Delicious. Worth buying.
Five words I never thought I'd utter in one statement.
I belong to the "ABCs of Drinking Club." Every Thursday night, 20 to 30 friends and acquaintances meet for drinks after work, and we're working our way up the alphabet of bars in Minneapolis and St. Paul. Last week was Joe's Garage. Next week is Kieran's. Next is Legends. You get the idea.
One woman I met through a friend of a friend in the club urged me to try your boxed wine. I knew the economics of it, but was hesitant over quality.
I bought a box of cabernet ($24 for the equivalent of four bottles of wine--bargain!) and am THRILLED (!) that I can have a glass and not worry about finishing a bottle in the next 24 hours.
Your wine is very tasty, plummy, smooth, and high quality. Thank you for producing a delicious product in an affordable, less-impact-on-the-environment-package.
I am singing your praises to anyone who will tolerate my slurred speech (kidding!)

that you wrote this letter, Red - LOL!
But I'm failing to see the downside in finishing a bottle in 24 hrs ;)

Thanks for all the nice comments people (loved your response, Jeffrey!). One problem: It's easy to lose track of wine consumption. With a bottle, you know that you've finished a bottle. I had too much this weekend! :)

My head this morning was so hoping not to hear the word "wine" at all today. Of course....first post I see. Ouch, wish the keyboard wasn't so loud.
Thanks for the tip on the wine....I shall try it myself!

One more plus I should have thought of: The spigot is awesome--not a single drip after pouring a glass. It shuts off immediately and very tightly.
Happy Thanksgiving, all! :)

I saw this letter and I KNEW it had to be Angela.
Thanks for letting us know. I'm trying to be a wine snob on a budget and have wondered if this was any good. Now, I know it's worth trying.
THANKS.
