I was wondering about the pop-tops. I bet it wouldn't be hard to drill a hole in the bottom, switch the fluids, then seal it up again. I grant that it would be exceedingly weird to bother.
I'd actually just cut the whole top of the can off at the seam, and then solder that back on. Probably wouldn't be too conspicuous. No little hiss of escaping CO2, though.
I thought soldering was a secret known only to engineering geeks.
Hiding wine in a can sounds stupid to me. Glass is best for cold liquids and ceramic is best for hot liquids. Cans aren't really the best for anything.
I like diet coke served in white wine glasses...

I haven't been following this so closely: Are "King of Pop" jokes totally cliche by now?

I like ginger ale served in champagne flutes.

It's the implied effort involved in soldering the pop-tops shut again after refilling with wine that makes it really classy.

Everything tastes better in a champagne flute! Try passion-fruit juice, you'll feel like the king of Siam.

I really don't understand the meaning of "charming" in this post.

Cans do protect beer from the fatal skunkiness-producing effect of UV light.

White zin in plastic Big Gulp cups is the way to go.
