What’s the word out there?
Well we have spent sometime looking at what was being said in the press, various blogs, Reuters, etc…on boxed wine as an “eco-friendlier” alternative going forward. The latest is that we have long way to go although UK sales trends are still on the up. The green bottle recycling issue is not disappearing but growing. Already major supermarket chains are investing in alternatives (boxed wine, Tetrapak, plastic bottles) and like the screw tops are now welcomed by the british drinker so too are the quality bag in boxes becoming more acceptable. Top producers are prepared to “box” their wines as part of their plea to do their bit on the environment front. No one says it is 100% green but it’s a big improvement and every little helps!
