Sauvignon Blanc is a natural choice in the summer because of its crisp acidity, light body and bright notes, and Sauvy B doesn't just deliver cooling refreshment on the hottest days, it also replenishes with electrolytes. This launch from Joel Gott Wines unites wine with the increasing interest in spritz culture and functional refreshment, all of which Sauvy B serves up in a convenient, ready-to-drink can.
Sauvy B is made with California Sauvignon Blanc, plus sparkling water and electrolytes, and it delights with crisp, lightly sparkling flavors like Lime and Grapefruit. At 4.5% ABV and about 100 calories, Sauvy B is a lighter, more refreshing low-calorie alternative to traditional wine and other go-to alcoholic drinks that are made with a base of malt or spirits.
