Okay everyone...get you box wines ready!
Actually, you don't have to review a box wine for the next edition of Wine Blogging Wednesday, this time hosted by Box Wines Blog. -- Tetra packs, Tetra boxes and other non-traditionally packaged wines are fair game too.
This should prove an interesting theme for everyone's favorite wine blogging event. I hope that some people delve into their parents' cellars and pull out some Almaden or Franzia too.
Me? For the second month in a row, I'll have to leave New York wines behind...no one here is doing anything that interesting with packaging.
So, join us on March 14.
I remember in a local liquor store a few weeks ago, he had cans of something on the counter, I asked him what they were, aparently they were some type of Australian wine, I think white but I could have been guessing that at the time and it stuck in my head. I didn't buy it because I was thinking "OK, novel idea, but I bet it stinks and they need the novel approach or nobody will buy it".

So Lancer's crocks are OK here? I wonder if they still make Black Tower??

Black Tower! Wow that brings back memories. That seemed so classy when I was a kid. I hope someone tastes that (if they still make it).

Hi! I wanted to email you, but your link wasn't working on my pc for some reason. *sigh* Anyhow, I'm a fellow NY blogger (http//CeliacChicks.com) and we've been invited to host a fundraising event with the Paul Taylor Dance Co. for the Columbia U. Celiac Disease Center. We've got food sponsors for the reception and now I'm looking for a wine distributor that would like to help. Would you be able to steer me in the right direction or have any connections that could be used for a good cause?
Thanks in advance,
Kelly

Do ou have any informationwhere I can find "Black Tower" for sale anywhere, or the name of a distributor? I heard it was coming back to the US. I live in the greater Atlanta area.
Thanks,
Tom
