hard to find piquant in boxed wines, good for you

You ever go through phases where you're flat out bored with food? Kinda where I am now. I'm down 20 since Lent began, but I can't think of anything that appeals to me.

Maybe it's just exhaustion from being without my bipap for a week.

You're missing out if you don't try a boxed Chateaux Margaux Pavillon 2016 with a chicken burrito.

I prefer a boxed Hermitage when I dine at the Elf Sieben
