I don’t actually know the answer to that. This Black Box Sauvignon Blanc Chile 2019 is the first boxed wine I’ve ever bought, though I have tasted a few from time to time at events and at private homes. It’s three-liters, the equivalent of four standard bottles, and at an average $20 it would appear to be of great value.
I took a small taste last night, but I want to taste it over time, to see if it changes in any way, and if the bag inside keeps the wine fresh and bright over time. The packaging boasts 70 Gold Medals, but doesn’t say which ones or when they were awarded, so as far as I know at least one could be from a Bradford (Ohio) Bodega.
The Black Box people themselves describe it this way: “Our award-winning Sauvignon Blanc shows off stone fruit, fresh peach and floral notes. Crisp acidity and herbaceous undertones lead to a clean, dry finish. This refreshing white wine pairs well with white meat or seafood?”
Well, we shall see, and I shall let you know. Happy Fourth of July!
