The 4 Best Insulated Wine Tumblers

Wine tumblers are a great way to keep your fancy beverage of choice crisp and cold long after you pour it. When it comes to choosing the best insulated wine tumblers, you’ll want to consider its construction and materials to ensure your pick offers the best insulation possible.

Typically with wine tumblers, there are four common features that help keep your drink cold: a double-wall design, vacuum insulation, a reflective liner, and a fully sealing lid. All of these design elements work in different ways to help to prevent your beverage from getting warmed up by the air surrounding it. Many tumblers will feature a double-wall design and vacuum insulation, however, some of these other traits can be harder to come by.

As for materials, the most ideal way to keep your wine chilled would be a tumbler with stainless steel double-walls combined with a copper lining. High-quality stainless steel is durable and long-lasting, though it tends to be more expensive, and some people find it has a metallic aftertaste. Another popular material for tumblers is plastic, which is often more affordable and great for outdoor barbecues and pool parties. The trade-off is that it isn't as sturdy and could crack or shatter.

You'll also want to consider any extra features that you want in a tumbler. If you prefer drinking with a straw, you'll want to find a tumbler that has a lid with an opening or even one that comes with a reusable straw.

Below, I've gathered a list of top picks to help you enjoy your chilled wine even through the hottest of days. Read on to find the best wine tumbler for your needs.
