In recent months, we have discussed beer and whiskey without alcohol and kombucha and coffee with it.
Adding to the bevy of bewitched beverages is Sovi, a sparkling non-alcoholic wine that uses the same grapes from Napa Valley as many of your favorite “hard” vintages yet allows even the teatotalers among us to enjoy more of it!
Founded by former sommelier Julia Littauer (who calls her progressive product a “dealcoholized” wine) and her wine-minded husband Alex, Sovi is made from sustainably-grown grapes that are harvested by Sovi’s partners just east of Napa using traditional methods to achieve the flavor and texture of more traditiona wines. Sovi then uses a state-of-the-art technology to remove the alcohol while preserving the delicate aromas and flavors that make each varietal unique. Each serving has just 25 calories and, as there are no unnecessary added sugars or flavors, the premiere sparkling rose lets the armomas and flavors of pink grapefruit, cherry, and watermelon bubble through.
Whether you want a refreshing drink that will not alter your brain chemistry or just a great tasting glass of wine regardless of whatever may or may not be in it, Sovi could be your new fave!
