The contents of our monthly wine subscription for May
Welcome back to the monthly reveal of the contents of our best-selling canned wine subscription box; the 6 can Juice Box.
If you’re new here, our Juice Box is our ‘mixed’ wine subscription. It changes with the seasons and is the only box whose contents completely change every month. This blog post covers our most popular box, the 6-can version. You may receive different cans on the 3 and 4-can wine subscriptions.

With the sun beginning to shine, it’s the perfect time to start drinking Vinho Verde. This one from Gatào clear in the glass and slightly fizzy - just how Vinho Verde should be! It’s delicate and smooth on the palate with fruity notes of passion fruit and pineapple with a lemon citrus hit. This particular canned white wine is made from a blend of 5 Vinho Verde grape varieties.
Another white wine that lends itself to warmer times is a crisp Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand. Joiy’s Savvy Society is full of vibrant fruit and hints of passionfruit, balanced with subtle fennel and basil. Try pairing this white wine with any fish dishes, particularly salmon. This also works perfectly well with an antipasto platter and park picnics.
The third wine included in our monthly wine subscription for May is something a little more fuller-bodied. This Viognier is an aromatic and moreish wine full of ripe, baked peach flavours, jasmine and geranium. It’s full-bodied and soft with hints of buttery puff pastry and finishes with a bite of apple-like acidity on the palate.
Fancy something sparkling? This next canned wine is a beautiful organic sparkling rosé made from 80% Syrah and 20% Grenache grape varieties. It’s a delicate light pink hue in the glass with vibrant, mouth-filling bubbles carrying waves of crunchy strawberries, raspberries and a hint of spice. Cheers to La Bulle!
The next wine included in our subscription for May is a rosé made from 100% Syrah. The grapes have been carefully pressed to allow the Syrah to bring a slight spice to the finish. Vinca has made this lovely Provence-style Rosé from the coast of Sicily.
The final can our Juice Box subscribers will receive this month is something wine industry veterans would call a ‘Glou-Glou’. Pop this one in the fridge as it’s best enjoyed slightly chilled. This 100% Montepulciano red wine from Italy is more like a darker rosé than a red. It’s fruit-forward and juicy with hints of blackberries, cherries, and blood orange. Cheers!
If reading this has made you work up a thirst for some wines, why not start a subscription and start discovering the best-tasting, highest-quality canned wines for yourself. With prices starting at £19 per month, it’d be rude not to.
