We know we're the H&F BOTTLE Shop, but we also happen to offer a couple of wines in a box. These are not what you think of when you hear the phrase "boxed wine". Let us introduce you to Yellow+Blue, wines that might be summed up as "Fine Wine in Alternative Packaging".

Bottles are classic, but they're also heavy. Half of the expense of shipping wine around the world can be attributed to the weight of glass bottles. More glass = more gas = more money. So to save money and gas, more and more producers are looking into bottle alternatives. It provides a smaller carbon footprint, but also saves you cash.

Y+B is a line of wines created by Matt Cain, who spent more than a decade selling fine French wine all over the United States. Knowing all of the advantages of alternative packaging, he wondered why no one had managed to box up a wine that discerning palates could appreciate. So he decided to do it himself.

Here at H&F, err, Bottle Shop, we carry two of these boxed beauties, a malbec and a sauvignon blanc. Both are fresh, balanced, and delicious, not to mention exceptionally portable. The Malbec is bright, a little spicy, and definitely juicy. The Sauvignon Blanc is clean as a whistle, fresh, zippy, and citrusy. You get a liter of organically produced wine (25% more than a bottle) for a mere $10.99! We stand by the quality of the juice, and have the Sauvignon Blanc chilled and ready to go for your picnic.

Remember you get 10% off 12 bottles or more....
