Why Aluminum Cans? Aluminum not only protects our wine from oxygen and light, we chose 250mL cans because they are smaller, lighter, and more recyclable than glass - the perfect fit for one of our core principles: Nurture - someone who supports the health of their environment by lowering their carbon footprint and choosing to buy local when possible.

Also, we love that they combine convenience and portability in a single serving!

Incredibly economical ~ our 250ml cans are equal to an 8oz glass of wine which is also 1/3 of a 750ml bottle of wine.

Occasionally you may discover what look like little crystals in the bottom of the can. What you’ve discovered are typically referred to as wine crystals or wine diamonds. They are a natural occurrence in all wines and there are various possible reasons for their occurrence in a bottle or can of wine. As one example, if the wine was exposed to colder than normal temperatures (e.g. a bar-fridge or chiller) it can throw these crystals. Ideally, we prefer to have this process happen before it is canned, but occasionally it happens afterwards. The formation of wine crystals is less common in red wines, as their level of tartaric acid is lower, and crystals tend to fall out naturally during the longer aging process.

Their scientific name is tartrates and they are simply potassium bitartrate, which is the same thing as cream of tartar used in cooking. They are a very common, naturally occurring and not the least bit dangerous. 

You can feel comfortable and confident in buying our wine—with or without wine diamonds the quality of the wine is not affected by this natural process.

Why we say diamonds are a wine drinker’s best friend! Some folks think they are good luck, but we know wine diamonds can actually be considered a sign of quality and evidence of a wine that has had minimal intervention and less processing.

Both LÜVO Piquette + Peach and Sparkling Rosé received a Gold Medal at the 2022 International Canned Wine Competition

Piquette is a wine style that has been trending over the last few years, but its roots are old. It was originally produced as a refreshing, light and affordable drink for vineyard workers— it has seen a resurgence in popularity for the same reasons.  

Piquette is made from the fresh grape pomace (skins and seeds) that remains after pressing out the juice for classically fermented white and Rosé wines. 

There are still heaps of aromatics and some juice remaining in the pomace, so with the addition of some water it can be pressed again to make piquette. 

Our LÜVO Piquettes are made from piquette combined with classically-fermented white wine and an extra fruity splash to create refreshing spritzers.

Our LÜVO wines are all natural and gluten-free, there are no artificial ingredients, colours or additives. They are vegan since no animal based fining material is used. They do contain sulphites. Each can contains 250ml of wine which is equivalent to an 8oz glass of wine.
