Think outside the bottle

You can finally let go of those college memories of sweet, pink box wine: Producers are now putting surprisingly good wine in boxes. Holding about four bottles’ worth, they’re convenient for the beach, pool, or campground. And improved bladder and spigot technology keeps wine fresh at least a month. After taste testing, here are some we like:

Delicato Shiraz ($18; www.delicato.com)

Le Cask Old-Vine Zinfandel ($24; 209/367-4727)

Target Wine Cube Pinot Grigio ($16; available at SuperTargets and select Targets in California)

Sunset’s Wine Club
