Recently the San Francisco Chronicle published an article entitled “Have a Picnic With These Wines.” This article focused heavily on wines packaged in alternative formats i.e. bag-in-box, PET bottles and Tetra Paks. They mentioned that box wine is great to bring along to a picnic because of transportation conveniences and the ability for wines to be kept fresher longer.

Plus, if you and your picnic pals can’t quite polish off a box in the park, you can bring it home and it will be good for another couple of weeks!

Here are their top boxed wine picks:

2008 Black Box Wines Columbia Valley Riesling

2007 Bota Box California Cabernet Sauvignon

2008 La Petite Frog Coteaux du Languedoc Picpoul de Pinet

2007 Red Truck California Red Wine
