Metal Gear: Canned wines for your next camping trip

Ditch the bottles and pack these convenient, lightweight canned wines instead. They’re easy to carry and perfect for stealthy park picnics too

Big House Red, White And Rosé

Big House Red, White and Rosé

Rosé, $3.95; red and white; $4.15 each

This Californian winery now offers a trio of canned wines. Our favourite is the juicy, oaky zinfandel, which will complement campfire-cooked meats nicely. The zesty pinot grigio and the newest to the Big House lineup – a rosé with floral, melon aromas – are both excellent refreshers for sunny afternoons.

Origin Aromatic Sparkling White

Origin Aromatic Sparkling White

$5.95

The only Ontario VQA in a can. Crisp and refreshing with stone fruits and a lingering sweetness from the addition of vidal icewine. From Between The Lines Winery, Origin is lovely to enjoy on its own but we’re also partial to throwing in some fresh fruit in our glasses. 

Liquid Bullion Sauvignon Blanc

Liquid Bullion Sauvignon Blanc

$4.80

A refreshing white with tropical fruit aromas. The quick, dry finish will be appreciated by those who prefer their wines less sweet. The Australian-grown grapes are from Kingston Estate Wineries. 

Joiy Sparkling White

Joiy Sparkling White

$4.85

A sweet Prosecco-like bubbly made from cool-climate New Zealand and Australian riesling grapes. Serve with a wedge of lemon or lime, or get creative and mix together a Joiy-based sparkling cocktail. Just remember to poke the ice cubes instead of stirring to retain the wine’s carbonation. 

Jacob’s Creek Dots Moscato

Jacob’s Creek Dots Moscato

$4.95

A spritzer-like wine with lots of fruity flavours and an aroma of sherbet. This is an easy-drinking crowd-pleaser that’s definitely on the sweeter side. Try mixing Jacob's Creek Dots Moscato with soda to create a low-proof beverage for daytime drinking or use it as a base for a white sangria.
