Wine packaging is getting a revamp, thanks to winemaker Tom O'Donnell of Riot Wine Co.
In 2016, O'Donnell co-founded the Adelaide, Australia-based company Riot, which releases its wines exclusively in cans and in kegs.
Riot wines have been pouring on tap at bars and restaurants across Australia since 2017, which the Riot founders claim has a range of benefits, starting with the environmental impact – the lifetime of just one keg can replace 23,000 bottles.
Riot also hopes to educate Australians on the benefits of canned wine, which is a rapidly growing market segment overseas.
I caught up with Tom at The Cannery, Riot's new Adelaide tasting room.
