Recently on Bon Appétit? Superstar somm Andre Mack (yes, the same guy behind some of our favorite in-store bottles, like this, and this, and this) reviewed a whole gamut of boxed wines.
His favorite? One we were already working with: Sandy Giovese. (He even said, "I'd drink this wine all day long.") (See it here; he mentions it at the beginning and reviews it in full after the 6-minute mark.)
Want other reasons besides both our and a celebrity somm's rabid endorsement? How about:
1) Because an organically grown, delicious Tuscan red "bottle" for 9 bucks and change is an astonishment!
2) Because it's better for the environment! (Boxed wines = half the emissions per 750 milliliters! Research indicates that switching to wine in a box for the 97 percent of wines that are made to be consumed within a year would reduce greenhouse gas emissions by about two million tons, or the equivalent of retiring 400,000 cars!!!
)3) It stays fresh in its vacuum pack in the fridge and seems like it never runs out!

Since 2016, the winery has been converting their estate to organic farming. Systemic chemical treatments, including insecticides and herbicides, and synthetic fertilizers are never used. Green manure, water-conservation methods, drastically reduced
copper and sulfur treatments, carefully-tended beehive communities, and insect sexual-confusion techniques are employed. With over 800 hectares of arable lands on which an array of agricultural products are cultivated in addition to grapes, enhanced biodiversity and soil health is measured through the estate’s commitment to The Biopass Project since 2014, supported by a fully solar-powered cellar.
