A low-calorie, low-alcohol Chenin Blanc, this wine is for the smart sippers! Wine has historically been used to toast goodwill, health and as a compliment to dining.

A low-calorie, low-alcohol blend of Chenin Blanc and Tempranillo, this wine is for the smart sippers! It is made by harvesting grapes at optimal phenolic ripeness, but before they have a high sugar concentration. This is the natural way to create a lower-alcohol wine as opposed to utilizing an alcohol reduction process. This low intervention method is ideal rather than employing harsh techniques like vacuum distillation, centrifugal force, or reverse osmosis to remove alcohol from finished wine. The wine is fermented and aged in stainless steel without oak aging to retain the fresh fruit flavors. Bottled 04-30-24.
