Individually, Bota Box Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Grigio are in-demand offerings from one of the most popular premium wine brands in the United States, and Bota Box Brightside combines them into a light, bright, refreshing blend. "Wine drinkers are increasingly choosing light and bright white blends, whose sales are up 14% in the last year," said Andrew Blok, Marketing Director for the Bota Box portfolio. "Creating a blend of these varietals that highlights the best attributes of each was a natural move."
This crisp, easy-drinking white wine blend with notes of lemon zest, white peach and grapefruit is the first new addition to Bota Box's core portfolio in over a decade, and it can be found in two convenience-focused formats: a lightweight, shatterproof three-liter bag-in-box (equivalent to four bottles of wine) and 500-milliliter Tetra Pak Minis.
