 Hey! NJRoot22.com here with another cheap wine reviews vlog. So today we're gonna talk about something. I was gonna do this in two vlog segments but I'm gonna do it in one because I can this is the only boxed wine review you'll ever need and it covers the entire spectrum okay so here's what we got number one boxed wine is a funny kind of thing some people you know either like it or enjoy it for economic reasons etc if you only drink one or two or maybe three glasses of wine a night dinner I highly recommend pretty much any and all boxed wine I don't care which which brand it is because if you're only gonna have a glass or two or maybe three you'll always feel fine the next day always and it's the most affordable way to buy wine it stays good for like a month in the refrigerator it's just smart find the boxed wine you like the flavor of the most and and have at it you know that's it it's like 20 bucks give or take sometimes it's 17 sometimes it's 22 but it averages out to about $5 a bottle of wine which it can't be beat for a glass or two or three a night max okay because if you start doing like if you've watched these videos the way I judge wine is is the two bottle that's up 1.5 liter 1500 milliliter or two 750 milliliter bottles if I feel like crap the next day after two bottles that wine is no good for me so like for instance here's a here's a an interesting I like this brand in the bottle for some other reason this brand in the box it was 14% alcohol look at that yeah 14% I thought it was gonna be a winner because most boxed wine is around 13 13 and a half sometimes 12 12 and a half that's why you can't drink too much because it's just shoddy wine this was the worst I am never buying this again this did not pass the two bottle test and it's failed never again I got I got conned by the 14% however I was gonna do a sole vlog about this one which is the Shania or Shania Twain Shamia whatever you want to call it this is a monestrel 2015 it's out of Spain what struck me and I found this at Bourbon Street what struck me about this wine here was look at the alcohol percentage you read that I mean is it coming through me like how do I how do I get this thing to focus 14 and a half percent which is extremely high for it's like the highest I've ever seen in the box one and this wine right here I have to tell you I'm gonna take a big giant sip this is gonna be my new signature ready watch mmm it's the big satisfying after my sip that's I'm gonna do it every time throughout the do it in the last video this is a solid box wine 20 bucks plus tax I like this it passes the two bottle test with flying colors flying colors without without a doubt it the color I don't know I mean like if you want to talk about taste and all this nonsense I think it it's just middle of the road it's not it's not gonna make my socks fall off so I'm not gonna have some sound of like like like Technicolor dream either the next day it's just a it's just a good one I highly recommend this and they have another wine that was been highly touted they they sell they sell this at Bourbon Street as well some sort of an organic eco friendly type thing and it was like a 13 and a half percent box wine and it did not pass the two bottle test sure that can be in your rotation if you're the one or two glass at dinner time type guy or gal but you know that organic thing isn't flying too well with me and plus the grapes and the regions in Spain and other countries they don't really actually need to use pesticides and stuff like that so it's much less of a concern than California wines from what we understand I could be wrong I don't know it's just stuff people tell you you know unless you're there firsthand witnessing the entire process from birth to bottling like the ground the the the whole management of the grapes the the the harvesting of the grapes the the processing of the grapes the whole thing you're you have to take a leap of faith you have to believe people and and this is something that a lot of most of us and I speak collectively not for myself per se but we sort of have to have to believe what people say because none of us or hardly any of us can be there to witness the process for every single solitary grape from the beginning to end so whether you believe it and I can go on and on I mean I've seen tons of stories about how things that were labeled organic or this or that ended up not being what they said because there's a lot of corruption out there and people cut corners to save money or to gain riches so I don't know I think that it's it's really a crazy crazy time for all of us to live in with all these you know conflicting beliefs and arguments but this this Shania or Shania I like calling it Shania a lot of people will like to say Shania because of the famous singer I'm gonna call it Shania because I think that's more of Spanish than Shania Shania sounds more more American but this I recommend this this is this passes the two bottle test for root 22 here and J22.com but it's the only only box wine I will ever buy because I don't do a glass or two with dinner maybe every now and then I might be too tired to drink more than two glasses I'm saying I'm petered out I'm going to sleep but this passes the two bottle test and this is the only boxed wine I recommend for that type of wine drinker but like I said I'll remind you if you only have a glass or two a night buy boxed wine exclusively sure it's not that whole fancy shmancy wine industry type bogusness I mean maybe some people like that I don't know I'm gonna do another video next week about a little more expensive wine it's by the way this cheap wines review vlog has a limit of $10 a bottle and for the most part I mean every now and then I may go up to I may just review a 10 or 20 or 30 or $40 bottle wine just for giggles I might have to do two bottles because that's that's that's the that's the review two bottles is is the is the standard here and how do I feel the next day but I'm gonna tell you again one tax time this is ridiculous I've had to by the way I measure out two bottles I take two old bottles of wine and I and I pour it out to make sure that I am drinking two bottles and now or I'll use a measuring cup to make sure I never drink I mean you can't really measure when you can't see the bag inside here so I usually put them in old wine bottles and and that's how I keep track of what I drink I'm not gonna get out of control and just drink the whole box you know so that's it I think I've summed this up I'll recap one last time for people who can't pay attention if you drink one or two or three glasses of wine a night with dinner any box wine is fine find the one you like the flavor of or the price of and just it's the best most economical way and safest way because your wine stays good for for a month and if you're gonna drink like me and drink two bottles a night the only boxed wine I recommend have a nice week ahead
