The Copper Crew

Oh hey, it's been a while... Just going to pop this here: coppercrew.co.uk/collections/all

We could go on about our Pintoage but we thought it was better summed up in a starter pack meme....its got bags of deep dark fruit flavour, think things like plum and blackcurrants, which is light, easy drinking and has a slight oak finish. Best described as adult grape juice!

Caught red handed (and jumper-ed) this is Oli “working”….Welcome to Fridays at Copper Crew....

We quietly launched this wine at the end of last year, mostly so Theo and Oli could keep themselves stocked up over Christmas…it’s fair to say that they tried their best to run us out of Pinotage, but didn’t quite manage…As with all our Discovers wines, once its gone, its gone

A canned natural pinotage, truly a world first! The Crew likes to represent everything South African and you can’t get much for South African than this….Our genius winemaker Sam calls this ‘adult grape juice’

It's all been hush hush at Copper Crew recently but worry not, the Crew is still going strong and has lots planned for 2023 - can't reveal it all yet but needless to say the wine world's favourite two gingers aren't going anywhere!

@dnkrbywine Mood - our issue is that they won't pick up from us! Been waiting nearly a week to try and get parcels out. Spent last weekend doing some of the deliveries myself but with these petrol prices I don't want to drive to Glasgow and northern Scotland!

First parcel sent with new courier, indefinitely ‘delayed’. Boils my piss.

@James_Saye @Oenophilechat @winewankers Thank you very much @James_Saye!!

@Oenophilechat @winewankers Absolutely. Some great stuff out there. @CopperCrewWines in the UK are great. I wrote a bit about canned wine a while ago. thewinetech.substack.com/p/cans-must-be…

@CambWineBlogger @Oenophilechat @winewankers Thank you Tom!!!

@Oenophilechat @winewankers Been impressed by everything about @CopperCrewWines - good wines well presented. cambridgewineblogger.blogspot.com/2021/10/copper…

We contributed to a book! Yet another thing we never thought would happen in our little world... Really enjoyed sharing our experience and helping produce the case study so check it out!

If you've ever thought of launching a drink brand, there's a book for that from @brandrelations_ Plus a case study from canned wine start-up @CopperCrewWines cambridgewineblogger.blogspot.com/2022/04/how-to… @mme_hammond @WineBusProf @robertjoseph @FelicityCarter @RekaHaros @richardsiddle @tishwine

Big thank you to @InesSalpico for the write up and for taking the time to chat!! As ever another shout to our WTAF partners - @BIBWine, @cannedwineco, @wheninromewine, @GraftWine, @MoreWineOnTap

Really enjoyed talking to @InesSalpico from @Decanter about all things cans and alt formats. More than anything really, really, proud of these scores 91 and 90 for our Sav B and Rosé. Those are the best marks I’ve ever got for, well, anything! Full article decanter.com/author/ines_sa…

This press came from the amazing WTAF tasting we held in London alongside our alt format partners - @wheninromewine @cannedwineco @GraftWine @BIBWine @MoreWineOnTap . All of them are legends and there's another very exciting WTAF event brewing....

Full article here and a big thank you to @cltomlinson for the coverage! houstonchronicle.com/business/colum…

We’ve made it to the US….sort of…. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Oli's been ruffling the feathers of the wine industry and was quoted in the @HoustonChron talking about how the wine industry must take sustainability seriously or else we're going to loose many of our beloved wine regions!

@CambWineBlogger @SuzyQlovesWine @WineFolly @WOSA_UK @WOSA_USA Thank you @CambWineBlogger!! @SuzyQlovesWine - yeah there are certainly some faulty cans out there but if done properly there is absolutely no reason for a metallic taste when it comes to canned wines. In the US check out @MakerWineCo for truly great wine, just in a can

@SuzyQlovesWine @WineFolly I've had some really enjoyable wine in cans from @CopperCrewWines Susan. Good guys making good wine. cambridgewineblogger.blogspot.com/2021/10/copper… @WOSA_UK @WOSA_USA

What's a tip for buying quality wine that you think all beginners should know?

@onlinewineclub @adntaylor @JancisRobinson Love to see it @onlinewineclub - efficiencies from alt formats really are astounding when you see them like this

On this nearly empty pallet are 54,000 of our high-tech aluminium wine pouches! If we used glass bottles, they would take up 15 full pallets, weigh 9.2 tonnes and have contributed 77 tonnes of CO2 to climate change. That’s >1000x more than the pouches.

In celebration of a recent move to our new warehouse, we've partnered up with @CopperCrewWines. 🍷 Spend £750 ex VAT to receive a 6 pack of their wine! While stocks last. 🙌 #specialoffer #coppercrewwines #flooring #floorcare #sanding
