Wine with a lower carbon footprint

plastic wine trioWine.com now offers the Eco Wine Trio from Boisset Family Estates – a Merlot, a Côtes du Rhône, and a Pinot Noir in polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles. PET is the plastic used for most water or soda bottles and has the #1 recycling symbol on it.

Weighing in at 90 percent less than traditional glass bottles and boasting a 50 percent reduced carbon footprint, the three wines come together in a gift package made from 100 percent recycled material.
