This Could Be the Smartest Way to Transport Wine That We’ve Seen Yet

Warm weather is in full swing, spring flowers are in bloom, and invitations for outdoor events are pouring in. After a long, cold winter and plenty of April showers, we’re taking every chance to soak up the sun with good friends and delicious food. 

Dining alfresco is easy when you have the right gear. Hearth & Hand with Magnolia, a Target collaboration with celebrity interior designer Joanna Gaines, just launched a brand-new collection made for outdoor gatherings like deck parties, beach days, and park meetups. The line features dozens of seasonal essentials you’ll want to add to your cart, but if you can only buy one thing, make it this woven wine bottle carrier.

Hearth & Hand With Magnolia Woven Bottle Carrier

Whether you’re spectating a pickleball tournament or attending a neighborhood barbecue, good wine is always welcome. This clever bottle carrier has an adjustable orange and white striped strap for ultimate portability. A metal latch secures items with a simple turn and unlocks just as easily. When you’re ready to access your items, the case opens up like a book, revealing two separate sections. 

The carrier has one compartment that’s wide enough to fit a wine bottle. It has a snap closure at the top that wraps around the neck of your bottle. It’s lined with waterproof fabric, making it easy to clean up any spills that happen during transit. 

You’ll find the other compartment split into three smaller sections: two with protective straps to wrap around stemless glasses, and one designed to store accessories like a wine key, napkins, or small snacks.

At 13 x 9.3 x 5.5 inches, Joanna Gaines’ carrying case is tall enough to fit any standard bottle of wine, liquor, or juice. You can even stow away your favorite water bottle for all-day hydration.

As eye-catching as it is functional, the carrying case is inspired by a classic picnic basket. Covered with brown paper woven to look like rattan (a natural material that’s made for outdoor use), it’s a no-nonsense — yet chic!— way to carry your favorite drinks. 

No matter if you’re heading to the beach, the park, or a neighbor’s backyard, this Joanna Gaines carrier lets you show up in style, with everything you need to get the drinks flowing. Head to Target and grab yours for $35 — all you need is a couple of glasses, a good bottle, and plenty of friends to share with. We’ll cheers to that.
