In general most box wines sold in the US are dreadful but the red are twice as good as the white. Other markets outside of the US provide much higher quality wine in boxes as they don't view it as cannibalizing the bottle market. The same with screw-top; simply not accepted in the US for quality wines. A shame, really.

Bogle is outstanding price/performance and makes an excellent riesling in the California style. As good or better than Jekel was in their former glory.
