The Ups and Downs of Box Wine
Box wine has been stuck with a bad rap. Despite this, packaging wine in this way can be beneficial. Box wine packaging is more economical and good for storing lesser priced wines. Box wine is also cheaper than bottled wine. Box wine is not meant to be stored or aged like typical bottled wines.

Box wine has also been called cheap and is criticized as being quick way for alcoholics to become intoxicated. -
