I tested canned rose – the £3 winner is easy to drink and perfect for picnics

A cold, crisp glass of rose is the perfect tipple when the sun is shining. We tested the best ones you can find in a tin. Here is the verdict.

Vinca Organic Pale Rose

(187ml) - £3

Light, easy to drink and very grown up, with hints of strawberry, cranberry and lemon and a slightly spicy finish.

10/10

19 Crimes Rose

(187ml) - £2.50

Filled with lively berry flavours. Delicate floral notes and rose petal aromas give it a balanced and fresh flavour. Not my favourite, but reasonably priced.

8/10

The Uncommon Rose Wine Spritzer

(250ml) - £4.55

Delicious with notes of red fruit and botanicals of mint and jasmine. Incredibly refreshing, moreish and really hits the mark - but it's not cheap.

7/10

M&S Zinfandel Rose

(250ml) - £3.75

Juicy and light with a refreshing finish and plenty of raspberry and melon flavours, but I found it very sweet, verging on sickly.

5/10

Pret-a-Porter Rose Mirabeau

(250ml) - £3.50

A deliciously dry rose, with a nice balance of watermelon and strawberry and a slight bite of grapefruit. Quite boozy with over three units in a can, but I loved it.

9/10

Canvino Rose

(200ml) - £2.50

Lovely fizz as you open the can and the wine was delicious, with fruity notes and medium-dry. Excellent value for money.
