Why Box Wines Are Better Than Bottled Wines

 

 There’s no denying the many advantages of boxed wines!

 

VACUUM-SEALED BAGS, AIR-TIGHT SPOUTS = FRESH WINE FOR 4 - 6 WEEKS

Once open, the bag inside the box preserves the wine for at least 4 weeks compared to only a day or two for bottled wine. Allowing you to enjoy the wine day after day after day at your own pace without pushing you to “kill the bottle” before it oxidizes and goes bad. No more pouring old wine down the drain either.

 

LESS SPENT ON PACKAGING = BETTER WINE FOR YOUR MONEY

The cardboard, wine spout and bag used in a 3 Liter wine box costs around $1.25. The glass, corks, capsules and labels used in 4 750mL bottles of wine costs around $6. So with boxed wines, a lot more of your money is going toward wine and less toward packaging.

 

LESS SPENT ON SHIPPING = BETTER WINE FOR YOUR MONEY

Glass bottles are expensive to ship. A 12-bottle case of wine in glass bottles weighs 38 pounds and only 53% of the space it takes up in a shipping container is wine. The same amount of wine in 3 3-liter boxes weighs 21 pounds and 86% of the space it takes up in a shipping container is wine. Boxed wines costs less to ship because they are lighter and can be packed more efficiently.

 

NO CORK = NO CORK TAINT, BLOOD, SWEAT, TEARS OR SWEARS           

With boxed wines, there are no corks, therefore avoiding the oxidation and TCA (also known as cork taint) that ruins an estimated 1 in 12 bottles of wine. The airtight bladders used in boxed wines are a neutral container that is well suited to holding wine for 12 – 18 months. No more broken corks in your wine and cuts from wrestling with corkscrews either.

 

SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER CO2 EMISSIONS = PROTECT THE PLANET

Boxed wines use significantly less energy resources in packaging production and shipping compared to glass bottles, resulting in a 50% smaller carbon footprint.
