‘My summer is made' shoppers exclaim as one of the most loved wines now comes in a can and everyone is stocking up
THERE'S nothing like a good glass of wine on a summer day or evening. And now shoppers can enjoy one of the most popular ones out there in the convenience of a can. 2 La Vieille Ferme wine, which is also known as chicken wine because of the chickens on the bottle, is a popular choice for wine lovers because of its taste and cheap price. One keen bargain hunter spotted the updated beverage on the shelves of their local Sainsbury's and took to social media to rave about the cans. "Chicken wine in a can! I know what I'm drinking all summer," they wrote over the viral TikTok clip.

Fellow TikTok users were overjoyed to stumble across the discovery and agreed the new cans have made their summer. And a second chimed in: "omg omg omg." Meanwhile, someone else did the maths to work out if the cans were really worth the price, they said: "4 for 3 so £9.30 for 800ml, that's a £9 bottle of wine." But someone else pointed out, "yes, but it's in a can so you pay for easy." Five Lidl rosés you need this summer, according to a wine expert - a £6.99 buy is as light & crispy as £22 Whispering Angel "True, I'd try for a picnic," another added. Wine lovers have already left rave reviews for the drink on the Sainsbury's website, awarding it an average of 4.5 stars of of five. One wrote: "Having followed La Vielle from the large bottle to the mini bottle, it now arrives in a can. Great value, tastes as good as ever." NHS guidelines on drinking alcohol According to the NHS, regularly drinking more than 14 units of alcohol a week risks damaging your health. To keep health risks from alcohol to a low level if you drink most weeks: men and women are advised not to drink more than 14 units a week on a regular basis spread your drinking over 3 or more days if you regularly drink as much as 14 units a week if you want to cut down, try to have several drink-free days each week If you're pregnant or think you could become pregnant, the safest approach is not to drink alcohol at all to keep risks to your baby to a minimum. You read more on the NHS website. Another said: "It's wine in a can, good for emergencies. Tastes just like the regular "chicken wine" that comes in bottles." Notable, the wine doesn't just come in cans and the classic bottle though, it's also been available to buy in a box for a while too. 1.5L of the La Vieille Ferme Rose Wine will set you back £15.75 in Sainsbury's, if that's more your thing. The harms of binge drinking The NHS defines binge drinking as 'drinking heavily over a short space of time'. More than 8 units of alcohol in a single session for males, or more than 6 units in a single session for females is the technical definition, according to Drinkaware. That's equivalent to about four pints of normal strength beer for a man or three pints for a woman. When you binge drink, other than getting drunk, your heart rate and blood pressure will rise. It can cause irregular heartbeats, known as arrhythmias. Alcohol increases stomach acid production - queue the nausea and potentially vomiting. You're also likely to experience impaired judgement, coordination, memory blackouts and poor decision making. This could lead to accidents, falls, drownings and other mistakes. Long term, binge drinking can cause acute liver damage and increase the risk of chronic liver diseases such as cirrhosis and liver cancer. Cardiovascular problems include cardiomyopathy - which is when the heart loses the ability to pump blood efficiently - and an increased risk of stroke. Over time, binge drinking can contribute to permanent brain damage. This may present as a mental health condition, such as anxiety or depression. Binge drinking can also lead to alcohol dependence, or "addiction".
