Wine in a juice-box! Just pop a straw in and go. Available in a handy 250 ml 4-pack, so you can share with friends or stick one in your pocket for later. You can get Pinot Grigio, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot or Chardonnay. Why didn’t someone think of this before?
Oh… and it doesn’t taste half bad.

So what do high quality wineries do with overstock they can’t seem to sell? Well they sell it to Three Thieves, who buy this overstocked wine, filter it into jugs or juice boxes and sell it on the cheap. So you’re getting high quality wine at bargain prices in many cases. Maybe the experience isn’t the same—it’s out of a jug or a juice box, not quite as seductive as popping a Champagne cork, but when you’re sitting around with your family and friends playing the Nintendo Wii, it couldn’t be better.

Why am I not surprised that Ted would mention this as a pairing to the Nintendo Wii.
It is like being 12 again: old school Nintendo and juice boxes. Now we’re grown ups. Nintendo Wii and wine juice boxes. I don’t think I ever grew up :)
