Boxed Wine Comes Off The Bottom Shelf w/ Erin Kirschenmann and Jason Haas, Ep 93

Thinking inside the wine box!

Have you noticed there are more boxed wine options on the market and they’re getting better and better? What may have seemed like a cheaper choice before is now viewed as a more sustainable choice. And the wine in the bag in that box? It keeps getting better.

We get the lowdown on the move to wine in boxes from industry expert Erin Kirschenmann of Wine Business Monthly and Jason Haas of Tablas Creek Vineyard in Paso Robles, CA.

For Erin, when it comes to alternative packaging for wine, she’s seen it evolve and she has the inside scoop on the industry perspective and the evolution of boxed wine.

For Jason, we’ll learn the inspiration for Tablas Creek being one of the first wineries to put really, really good wine in a box. If you’re used to cheap boxed wine, this is not only a revelation but a trend we’re seeing.

So draw some wine from the box in your fridge and join us for a great conversation!
