Bota Box holds the equivalent of four bottles of wine and has revolutionized the way consumers now drink wine. Its name is derived from the bota bag that was popular in the 1960′s, especially with outdoor enthusiasts because of its portability and convenience. Bota Box allows consumers to drink premium California wine by the glass without worrying about waste or spoilage. Available in five popular varietals, Bota Box uses state-of-the-art bag and tap technology that allows our award-winning wine to stay fresh for up to 45 days after opening.

Bota Box Merlot Tasting Notes

This lovely 2006 Merlot has a soft nose of plum and dark berry fruits with oak and spice nuances. On the palate the wine remains true to our style with fruit forward flavors of cherry with a hint of vanilla and toasty notes.  The finish is smooth and well-balanced making this Merlot supple and easy to drink.

Try our Merlot with roast pork or hearty meat and pasta dishes.

   My wife and I bought this wine last week and loved it. It’s really drinkable and because we bought it in a box (and not a bottle) we got a great value on it. I’m going to have to try Delicato’s other varietals now…

   This stuff is pretty darn good I have to say. I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a nice Merlot for a good price.

   I brought this to a friends wine tasting party. Served it in glasses, everyone raved about it’s drinkability, even the wine snobs…They were shocked to learn something so good came from a box….

   The wine in the box not only saves me money, it lasts a really long time. Merlot is my favorite wine in box.

   I only tried the wine in the box a couple of times and I would say that is just as fresh as out of the bottle.

   Just bought a box of BotaBox Merlot, my favorite. Went to open it and it was terrible. The wine came out a reddish/ brown shade, and the wine tasted horriable. The freshness date was; November 2010. The code number is L309139 1011 . Is there anything you can do with my sistuation?
