while it&39s not quite as prevalent yet as wine in a box, canned wine is another packaging innovation that&39s changing how we consume this alchololic beverage. the key to packaging wine in a metal container is a special can liner. without this liner, your wine would taste like the can it came in, and it would erode the container as it sat on the shelf. one of the biggest benefits in can wine is you are limiting your unfinished wine to oxygen exposure. the singleserving nature of canned wine also makes it great for taking wine on the go, especially in places that don&39t allow glass. think picnics, attending sports games, and even the pool.  source httpscience.howstuffworks.cominnovationinventions10winemakinginnovations.htmpage6
