When I was in Italy in 2009, you could get cartons of red or white wine in cartons for a Euro, like you would for cartons of fruit juice. They weren’t too bad once they were chiled in the fridge (even the red).

The kind of wine that you get in a carafe in France or Spain is perfectly drinkable. It's new and fresh and ideal for eating with some food.
This is the kind that usually ends up in a box...the only difference being that the box is full of preservatives and the one in the bistro/taverna usually isn't.
Best wine I had in France was in Lyon...every place that did house wine it was spot on. Lovely jubbly.

This is the sum total of what the French know about wine:
Andre: ***drinks turps-like liquid*** Pierre: Do you like le vin nouveau from le local vineyard? Andre: Oui, c'est manifique! Jean: Anyone like a glass of Chateau Petrus? Andre et Pierre: Pah! Is not local, we think.

Well as a French resident I can tell you that wine in a box is always going to be second rate. Sorry but as much as I enjoy many wines served this way the best always end up in bottles....
You can still get good wines in 3 or 5 litre boxes but hey! Would you put your best wines in 3 or 5 litre boxes or 75cl bottles? What would I know?.....

Contains fish guts, but exceedingly cheap to get smashed on.
Good times.

Wasn't Sean Connery 85 five years ago?
A young Sean Connery could be anything up to 80...

Indeed. Especially that last bit where you have to break the box open and rip the bag open to get the last dredges.
