Why We Box: Rethinking Wine, Sustainability, and the Future of the Pour

Why We Box: Rethinking Wine, Sustainability, and the Future of the Pour

At Vertical Wine Collective, we are proud to champion boxed wine as a sustainable, high-quality, and forward-thinking choice for modern wine lovers. As Washington State's only dedicated boxed wine retailer, our mission is to reshape perceptions and elevate the boxed wine experience.

Our collaboration with Giovese Family Vineyards, led by Amy Ezrin—also known as Sandy Giovese—exemplifies our commitment to this vision. Amy's dedication to producing premium Italian wines in eco-friendly boxed formats aligns seamlessly with our values. Her wines, crafted in Le Marche, Italy, by the sustainability-focused Conti degli Azzoni winery, offer exceptional quality while reducing environmental impact.

Boxed wine offers numerous benefits:

  • Sustainability: Boxed wine packaging has a significantly lower carbon footprint compared to traditional glass bottles.

  • Freshness: Once opened, boxed wine stays fresh for weeks, allowing for greater flexibility and enjoyment over time.

  • Value: With lower packaging and shipping costs, boxed wines often provide better value without compromising on quality.

We believe that great wine isn't confined to glass bottles. By embracing boxed wine, we support innovative producers like Giovese Family Vineyards who prioritize both quality and sustainability.

Explore our curated selection of premium boxed wines and join us in redefining the wine experience.
