Four Fantastic Wines For Tailgating This Football Season
Thanks to Bota Box for inviting me to review these wines. They provided me with free wine in exchange for an honest, unbiased review.
Football season is full on right now and Florida is home to some of the most fun to watch college and pro teams. Tailgating is a big part of the fun. And now that the weather is getting a little more temperate more and more sports fans are participating in the seasonal ritual. To help elevate the pre-game festivities, here are four fantastic wines for tailgating this football season and for Wine Wednesday.
When you think of tailgating and adult beverages, beer might be the first thing that comes to mind. Or mixed drinks in tumblers. So how does wine, typically best enjoyed in stemmed glasses fit in? There are some quality plastic, stemless glasses on the market like Govino that are perfect for outdoors. However, you still have to deal with heavy and potentially dangerous glass bottles.
This is where the can comes in. Not only wine in cans but boxes too. Before you roll your eyes (trust me, I have too) there has been great progress in the quality of these wines over the years. In addition, this kind of packaging is kinder to the planet. Cans weigh less than bottles. Boxes also weigh less and reduce wine waste.
Bota Box is a leader in boxed wines. Theirs contain 3 liters. That is the equivalent of four standard 750ml wine bottles. In addition, they say the tetra pack technology keeps boxed wine fresh for up to four weeks since it keeps the air out. These wines were gifted to me for review. Here are the results.
