Wine in a box – some is bad.

I was very impressed by the Black Box Merlot.  The wine lasted about 4 weeks and was good.  It was a little tired of it by the end but it never spoiled.  Most bottles will spoil in three or four days.  My next experiment was with Stonehaven Shiraz and Trove Merlot.  The Stonehaven was pretty bad and the Trove was just OK.  Fortunately, most boxed wine is inexpensive so it is no big loss to pour them down the drain.
