Lubanzi Wines Reviews

Best of Thingtesting4.9

Lubanzi Wines earns consistently positive reviews: reviewers say the wines work—approachable, well-made cans and bottles that deliver crisp Chenin, drinkable reds, rosé bubbles and a standout Pét-Nat—while praising sustainability and portable, attractive packaging; a recurring weakness is limited complexity for serious collectors and occasional scarcity of certain releases. These points help prospective buyers decide: choose Lubanzi for easy-drinking, mission-driven wines ideal for picnics and casual occasions, but expect simpler flavor profiles and spotty availability of specialty SKUs.

  • I don’t usually reach for canned wine but wanted to give this one a try! I really enjoyed the simple + crisp flavor. Nothing complex. Would probably pair well with some snacks or a charcuterie board. This would be perfect for a picnic or a sunny day. It’s easy to throw it in the cooler and take with you wherever. Each can has about 2 glasses of wine. Love having the option of a smaller portion of wine in comparison to a bottle. Also love the branding!

  • These wines would be great for a beach day or picnic. Not super complex, but for the price point, it’ll do! The Chenin Blanc was crisp, and easy to drink.

  • Lubanzi is my favorite wine! It’s an exceptional product at an affordable price point - and the option to buy it in cans means I take it everywhere glass isn’t allowed!

  • Stop the wine aisle wandering and buy this wine! You’ll be the most loved party guest/host if you do. There is a Lubanzi wine for every occasion, but it’s hard to top a chilled can of the chenin blanc on a summer day. Plus they’re a certified b corp, carbon neutral, and fair trade. What’s not to love about that!?
