Yellow and Blue Sauvignon Blanc Mendocino 2010 1L

So what's going on with this wine in a box? It looks like chicken broth from Whole Foods. Matthew Cain, who worked for many years with the famous importer Kermit Lynch, set out to make an environmentally conscientious wine. He decided to forgo a glass bottle and instead use a paper container. Some facts: - A full one-liter Tetra Pak is 95% wine and 5% packaging. A full wine bottle is 55% wine and 45% packaging. - For the containers that don't make it to the recycling bin, you can drink and discard thirty Tetra Paks before you take up the same space as one glass bottle in the landfill. - If 80% of retail wine sold in the U.S. was changed from glass to Tetra, it would be the equivalent of taking almost 400,000 cars off of the road. Oh, and the wine - made from 100% certified organic grapes. Very crisp and grassy with reserved citrus fruit.
