Believe it or not, some people prefer flat wine. Personally, I like bubbles. So it's nice to see the first canned sparkler from Oregon's Union Wine Co. Part of a line that includes a cherry-heavy pinot noir and a sugary rosé, this new gold can contains big, hearty bubbles in a soft, sweet nectar that's 11 percent ABV. The maker suggests it tastes like white peach, apple and lemon, but I only got one note, which I'd describe as hard cider made from Granny Smith apples. Each $7 can is the equivalent of a half-bottle of wine. It's hyper-quaffable and perfect for Instagrammable beach fires and river trips.
