"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication." – Leonardo da Vinci
What Is a Bag-in-Box? When people first hear "bag-in-box wine," they often think of something cheap and terrible.
But let’s clear that up right now: bag-in-box can be awesome.
Yes, really.
So, What Is It Exactly?
Bag-in-box wine is exactly what it sounds like:
-
A plastic bag filled with wine
-
Sealed inside a cardboard box
-
With a small tap, you can use to pour yourself a glass
It’s simple. It’s practical. It’s honestly kind of brilliant.
When you pour wine from the tap, the bag collapses, keeping air out.
That means the wine stays fresh much longer than an opened bottle—sometimes even weeks instead of just a few days!
Why I Like It
I personally like bag-in-box wines a lot.
They’re great for everyday drinking. They’re easy to store, easy to pour, and you don't feel guilty opening one on a random Wednesday night.
Also, they're usually less expensive because you're not paying for fancy glass bottles, heavy shipping costs, or fancy labels.
More money goes into the wine itself—not the packaging.
Win-win.
