We just came across this article via facebook. The wine industry has not just sent us head over heels with screw tops and tetra paks but now they are introducing us to plastic bottles (PET). Check out this site for more information - http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/news/article-23405839-details/Plastic%20fantastic...%20Is%20this%20the%20end%20of%20the%20glass%20wine%20bottle/article.do . It will be interesting to see what takes place and how it affects the colour, flavour, bouquet and ageability of wine. Will anything leach into the wine from the PET or will it be beneficial for us? We purchase hard liquor in the PET bottles, where will we go from here? What do you think? It will definitely be better for shipping but will it be better overall for the environment. Something to think about..................
I don't even buy Ketchup in plastic bottles so why would I buy wine in them?
