Story time! This crow needed a bottle of wine the other day, and things being as they are, I was on a budget. So I skipped up to the local boozery in search of one of my favorite less-than-seven-dollars bottles of wine; Pinot Evil. I like this wine; it is smooth, simple and cheap. A perfect weeknight “who cares what your having for dinner Lady needs a drink” kinda wine.
Anyways, I was searching the bottom shelves and I found this:
A entire BOX of Pinot Evil. For $20. Plus, there was this little handy graphic on the side that explained that 1 box= 4 bottles. I was sold. Any you know what? The wine tasted just as good, saved me eight dollars, and stayed fresh until the last drop*. It was like having a second faucet in the kitchen, only this one spurted wine. I had plenty of wine for me and whatever guests came through, all for a bargain price. What could be better? Boxed wine: Not just your Grandma’s Franzia.
*Disclaimer: by the end of the box I was so sick of this Pinot Evil that I will not be buying that brand for a long, long time. Thank goodness there are other boxes out there to try!

This did us quite well in Montreal, easier to put down when you pour it in a decanter first.
