From The Tank Vin Rouge Côtes du Rhône Boxed Wine 3L

From the Tank® is a collaboration between Jenny & François Selections and Les Vignerons D’ Estézargues. Produced at Domaine de la Patience.

From the Tank is Jenny’s very own project, which was born around 2010: “ I was living in France and experienced the centuries-old tradition of going to the local winery with a big jug to fill up with wine for all to enjoy. Making delicious, affordable wines available to everyone is my dream. You’re going to love these wines; it’s like a “vacation in a glass” from the French countryside, from me to you!”

From the Tank® — high-quality low-intervention wine at a great price. And it’s good for the planet, too!

When Jenny created From the Tank®, she was determined to source organically or sustainably-grown grapes that could then be turned into wine with little intervention. The wines she created together with our winemaking partner Christophe Aguilar of Domaine de La Patience in the South of France remain to this day unique in the marketplace of wine: tasty low-intervention wine.

The aim was also to create packaging that reduces greenhouse emissions and is easier to transport and serve than traditional glass bottles. Equalling four traditional 750ml bottles, the 3-liter bag-in-box is the most carbon-efficient wine package available and produces the least waste. It has a 55% lower carbon footprint in terms of energy needed for glass production and transportation and produces 85% less landfill waste. The plastic, which is 100% free of BPA or BPS residues, and the paperboard are easily recycled. Its lighter weight (only 7lbs [3.2 kg] for 3 liters of wine compared to the 10+ pounds brutto weight of four standard 0.75 glass bottles) also means reduced fossil fuel emissions further down the logistic chain.

Not only is it ecological, but the minimal packaging also makes “From the Tank®” perfect for any outdoor social occasion, where you’re looking for not-too fragile, logistic friendly packaging – once you have it in your hands, you’ll be surprised how compact and handy it is! It’s so easy to fit in any picnic basket, bike bag or BBQ set that it’s highly likely to become your go-to wine for get-togethers with friends. Hit the road, Jacques!

Another thing we love about the BiB: in the less collective moments when a glass of wine after a busy day feels like a must, the boxes are the perfect long-term companion. Unlike regular bottles that usually keep only for days once opened, the box can spend up to one month in the fridge. (And probably way more, but the wine is so good that no one has ever resisted much longer.) The vacuum-sealed pack inside the box keeps the wine fresh, so you can drink a glass a night and avoid the waste that would come from not finishing a traditional bottle of wine – if such a thing ever happens to you
