Taste Tests
One thing that many of the reviewers did agree on was that most of these wines are worth their price.
There's more to sparkling wine than just Champagne. Prosecco from Italy and Cava from Spain generally cost less but are often their own enjoyable experience.
These wines will often have "above-board agricultural practices, native-yeast fermentation, and no additives beyond minimal sulfuring."
While canned wines won't replace savoring a truly great bottle, they're fun for picnics and rooftops alike.
sip like a sommelier
Wine-tasting is a five-step process — look, swirl, sniff, sip, savor — that starts before you even taste the wine.
