No this isn't a joke it is a debate having w/ roommate. He claims his Burgundy. I say his Cab. Sav. Anyone help? I know they're cheap, but all can afford these days. Must save $, not lose it on fine wines.

But I enjoy Rossi , though it is mass made , & it is still a good value in this economy. I won't drink from a boxed wine, as BPA leaches out from the wine (as wine is acididc) but will drink best deal in a bottle, & 4L jugs of Rossi work well.

The issue is, too well.

Your information is out of date. Modern box-wine packaging is BPA free, and several say so on the box. See Octovin 3L wine boxes.

First of all, drinking boxed wine is a heck of a lot better than drinking a cheap 4 liter jug and it stay fresh longer. Of course if you go through the jug in a week or so it doesn't really make much difference. Now, if you enjoy Rossi good for you. I am sure others do or it wouldn't still be on the market, I just think it rates among the worst wines there are, along with Peter Villa.

Bought 2 boxes of this just this wk! Should keep me busy for a night or 2.

Thx all that gave advice.

Hungarian Pinot for 16.99/box 3L, is a good deal to me for decent wine.
