Would you drink it from a box? Would you drink it with a fox?

Yep. My Italian grandfather made his own wine and I have an uncle that still does. I have to agree with Paul, though. From what I've tasted - no thanks!

I voted for "I've had box wine that I like." That's PAST tense. Red wine is my tipple of choice - preferably in bottles.

Off topic, but I've had homemade beer that was very, very good!

My husband used to make homemade beer, and it WAS good. As good as most microbrewery beer, and far better than the big American brands. He had only one off batch: the recipe called for adding oak chips to simulate a cask-aged flavor, but the resulting beer tasted way too much like oak. We called it woodbrau and drank it anyway.

Glad to know you didn't waste it.
