FreeRange Red BordeauxA boxed wine cracked the top 100 list of affordable Bordeaux wines compiled by the Bordeaux Wine Bureau.

The Selection Process: Today’s Bordeaux were selected from more than 270 wines nominated by importers and retailers across the country priced $8 to $25 retail. In February 2007, the jury tasted all entries grouped by price in a blind panel. Wines were selected in the top 100 that were an excellent representation of Bordeaux within the given price range

FreeRange Red Bordeaux 2005 was the only box wine to make the top 100 list in the blind taste test. It was also one of the least expensive, competing with wines that cost up to $25 per bottle.

Congratulations to FreeRange for putting a box wine into such an elite group!
