4 Portable Wines You Can Take On The Go

4 Portable Wines You Can Take On The Go

Who loves kicking back after a stressful and drinking a glass of wine? I do...actually I do all the time. sometimes life is too busy and kicking back doesn't come so accessible, however wine can. I went to an event that had Zipz wine, it's a portable wine in a plastic champagne bottle with a resealable screw-top. This made me wonder what other portable wines are on the market and I was happily surprised that there are variety of them out there. From a pouch to a can, there are brands out there that want the wine-lover to sip on go. 

1.) Stack Wine  // 2.) Zipz Wine  // 3.) Nuvino // 4.) Underwood Pinot Noir 

Would you drink your wine on the go?
