Box wine

Common card · No. 434740

Boxed wine, also known as cask wine, bag-in-box wine, or goon, is any wine that is sold in bag-in-box packaging. The wine is stored in a strong, flexible bag made of synthetic plastic films which is held in a corrugated cardboard box, with a one-way plastic valve for dispensing the wine. Boxed wine is generally quite affordable. In Australia, boxed wine is often the cheapest type of alcohol available at liquor stores. However, there are some negative perceptions associated with boxed wine. Some consider boxed wine to be lower quality compared to bottled wine, and that its bag-in-box packaging is unsuitable for wine. It has also been suggested that there is a socially determined bias against boxed wine.
