Crafters Union Sparkling Wine
California bubbles in a can, chilled and ready to go.
The story behind Crafters Union
Crafters Union started as a Constellation Brands innovation label, rolled out nationally in 2017 and 2018, then passed to The Wine Group. The wine is made in Madera, California, where growers, winemakers and illustrators work on the same project. That third name matters: every can wears a wrapped, hand illustrated label, which is why the brand picked up an AGDA Design Award and a Silver at the NZ Best Awards.
The sparkling side is carbonated California wine, not bottle fermented, built for stability and crispness inside aluminum. The Pinot Grigio took Gold at the 2021 International Canned Wine Competition. We have sold this lineup for years to boaters, beachgoers and anyone who wants a real glass of bubbles without a corkscrew.

Which Crafters Union is right for you?
Every Crafters Union can in this lineup is $5.99 at our Commack store, and each 375mL holds about two and a half glasses, so you are paying roughly $2.40 a pour for California bubbles. That is the whole argument for the format. Buy a few Brut Bubbles for the cooler and a Brut Rose for the cheese board, and you have a party for under twenty dollars. Call ahead and we will tell you what is on the shelf today.
Aluminum chills fast, travels without glass, and needs no opener.
Strawberry and citrus cut through brie, prosciutto and chocolate.
Half a bottle, one glass, no leftovers going flat in the fridge.
