Wine lovers have a new way to tote wine around. While it’s true that you can use a cooler to keep your wine at the proper temperature, carrying one around isn’t exactly convenient.
However, you don’t need to contend with bulky bottles when wine purses are an option. Discreet and stylish, these purses are a great way to enjoy your favorite beverage no matter where you are.
What To Consider When Buying A Wine Purse
Wine purses are a great way to transport wine to events, to a park, or to the beach. You eliminate the weight of bottles and don't need to worry about a wine opener. Here are a few things to consider when you are deciding which bag makes the most sense.
Discrete Wine Spout
Is the spout well hidden?
Each purse should have a discrete spout to provide easy access to the wine inside. But each manufacturer may “hide” the spout in different ways.
Depending on where you are bringing your wine, you may not want it to be so obvious there is liquid in the bag.
Refillable Wine Pouch
First, every wine purse should have some type of beverage pouch or bladder. These bladders should be easy to clean and replace if necessary. The bladder capacity depends on the bag manufacturer, but you can generally count on it holding 2-4 bottles of wine.
You don't want to arrive at your event with wine only to find out it's too warm to enjoy
You need to think about the balance between having enough wine and the weight of carrying it around. We think two bottles worth (1.5L) is a good size.
Multi-functional
What style do you want?
Lastly, it can be nice to use your wine purse as a traditional purse when you aren’t toting your favorite beverage around. Multi-functionality may vary depending on the manufacturer and design.
Do you prefer a tote, backpack, or clutch? This all depends on your style and what you will be most comfortable carrying.
Which material makes the most sense?
If you plan to bring the bag to the beach most of the time, maybe a leather bag isn't a great idea
