Boxed In

For some time now I've been reading about the big improvements in the production of "box wine" - that's the stuff that comes in an air-tight plastic bag crammed inside a cardboard box. It has a handy little "faucet" thingie and lasts for weeks with no loss of quality. Perfect for someone like me who lives alone and likes to have a glass or two of wine with dinner without having to open a whole bottle. Sure, I can get Almaden or Franzio just about everywhere (and endure hoots of derision from - well, you know who you are), but what about these other ones, the ones that are supposed to be as good or better than many bottled wines? The kinds that master sommelier Andrea Immer-Robinson has given her stamp of approval to? Where are they to be found? I never see them in any store. I've even asked.

So I decide to investigate on line. Oh no! What is this? What kind of law is this that prevents me from getting the information I want? From what or whom am I being protected?

I am going to get to the bottom of this.
