Cans, Boxes and Sippy Straws
A New Way to Drink Wine
March 19, 2005

Listen to this feature (How to listen)

Wine maverick Josh Wesson of Best Cellars says forget any angst about choosing the correct (and pricey) glass for serving your Champagne or Chardonnay. The new way to sip is from box or can with a sippy straw! Here are some to look for:

Wines Packaged with Straws

  • Baby Piper from Piper Heidsieck
  • Sofia from Niebaum Coppola (comes in a can, with a straw)

Wines in a Box

  • Black Box from Napa costs about $25.00 for 2 liters
  • Hardy's Shiraz from Australia is about $18.00 for 2 liters
  • Also look for boxed wines at Target stores for about $16.00
