Champagne On the Run!

New this summer is Karma, a mod little four pack of 187-mililiter California sparkling wine created by 33 year-old Patrick Wilson, who likes the bubbly so much that he designed the chic glass bottle and wide screw-off cap himself. Karma could easily be the next Sofia Mini – and there’s no straw required (those straws sucked). Available in some bars and clubs already, but look for a full on roll out this fall. I cannot wait for their next product: a sparkling rose.
