    • “We’ve always enjoyed a gin in a tin, but our favourite grab-and-go drink has some competition,” Holly Willoughby told This Morning viewers. And we completely agree!

    HUN wine in a can is now a firm favourite among the daytime TV presenters and we can confirm it tastes delicious.

    And the best news? This rather swish looking little tinny costs just £2 and is available at your local Tesco. Absolute bargain! 

    Gone are the days when tinnies only applied to our favourite spirit and mixer combos. Now you can pick up a rather sophisticated sauvignon blanc, or bubbly rosé for picnics, barbecues or just days spent lazy in the garden.

    With the heatwave set to make a return to the UK, this news couldn’t come at a better time. 

    What is HUN wine? 

    Not only stylish, affordable and delicious – this multifaceted tinned wine is also vegan and fair trade. 

    HUN wine in a can is available in three variations; sauvignon blanc, pale rosé and sparkling rosé. 

    The rosé in particular is sure to be a firm favourite with shoppers, considering that sales of rose were up a huge 400 per cent last month, according to reporting by ITV.

    It’s clearly the 2020 summer drink of choice! You can buy HUN wine here.
