That was something they have been required to put on the label in the last
year or two, indicating they added juice and water to stretch the wine.
I also use the stuff in the box, as I very seldom (if ever) drink the
stuff, and I don't see a need to have more bottles around the house for my
kids to break. (Actually, some things actually turn out better when you use
a nice skanky CHEAP wine).
