The reason a date is applied to "Box Wine" is because the spigot is not as airtight a seal as one would find in a bottle with a cork.

That being said, the purpose of aging a wine is to allow the flavinoids created by the interaction of the fruit and air in the barrel to develop into even more complex flavors, and blend the parts into a pleasing whole.

The grade of wine typically used in box wines, however, is not likely to improve much (if at all) with time; due to fast processing times and commercial additives such as additional sugar, alcohol, and preservatives (depending on the brand).

Drink No Wine Before It's Time means?

In the production of wine, after fermentation, some wines are ready to go into a bottle and then to be consumed. Some wines mellow/develop/improve from barrel aging before bottling and some will benefit from both barrel aging as well as aging in the bottle. Knowing the type of wine you have, you can determine 'when' the wine has matured and is ready to drink. That would be the 'time' to drink it. So the phrase is encouraging wine lovers to let the wine mature before you open it.
