OK, So I Tried the Boxed Wine.....
It's time to taste the Three Thieves' Bandit, a wine that comes in a Tetra box and is blended at Napa Wine Co. in Oakville, CA. My husband laughed when he pulled the foil off the top and smelled it. "It smells like nothing," he said of the wine, which for the sake of this tasting was a Cabernet Sauvignon. Well, the guy at the wine shop hadn't told me much about it when I bought it aside from the fact that it was a Cab. "No oak," he said. Insightful.
I smelled a little fruit and a lot of alcohol in this wine.
Honestly, it wasn't the worst wine I've ever tasted. I liked it just fine with the pizza I was chowing and would have considered bringing it on a picnic for convenience sake. Not the Partner in Tasting (PIT). "It's just not very good," he said. "It would be very good for embalming, though."
We tossed most of the box.
Bandit costs $6.99 for the one liter Tetra brick at my local wineshop.
