Beating the Texas heat isn’t always easy, but a chilled glass of wine definitely helps. Canned wine may not have always gotten a warm welcome, yet there are plenty of reasons it simply works. For one, cans are recyclable and made from recycled materials, which is kinder to the planet. The wineries that sell canned wine tend to offer options that are organic, gluten-free, low carb, or suited to a range of dietary needs.
Consider, too, all the places where canned wine works and a bottle and glass don’t. Picture a trip to your favorite swimming hole. You can relax on the sand, but a glass of wine can’t come along. A cooler packed with ice and chilled cans of wine, however, can. Being able to pop a tab and bring your wine with you is a handy option that fits most any activity.
With that in mind, here are some of the top canned wines available right now. Every option listed can ship across the country and comes at a reasonable price. Wine lovers really should give a few of them a try — you won’t regret it.

Lubanzi Wines
Lubanzi Wines has recently started selling canned wines alongside its more traditional bottles. The lineup is limited to Chenin Blanc or a Red Blend. As with many brands, each can holds the equivalent of half a bottle, so a 4-pack ($30) equals two full bottles of wine. Every order ships free.

Choices include The Bubbles, Mei Wine, Nouveau Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir, Riesling Radler, Rose, Rose Bubbles, and Strawberry Cooler.
