Let’s be honest, wandering through the wine section of a bottle shop can feel uninspiring. All the different labels blur together, and for many people  commitment to a full bottle feels risky when you might open and leave it unfinished. The wine industry has lagged in innovation with many producers continuing to rely on heritage and packaging aesthetics. Genuine product innovation and excitement is hard to come by in the wine industry.

Poco Vino, “a little wine,” addresses this consumer dilemma. In most categories single-serve options are the norm, from small cans of Coke to snack-size chips, Poco Vino brings that same convenience to wine. Perhaps you just want a single glass, or your friend prefers a different varietal,187ml wine bottles offer flexibility, reduced waste, and eliminate commitment anxiety.

What sets Poco Vino apart is its sleek, modern aesthetic that resonates with today’s consumers. Retailers love it too, for its easy stacking and strong shelf presence.
