The dealcoholization process often strips wine of its original character and depth, leaving many non-alcoholic wine drinkers craving more flavor and a fuller sensory experience, and St. Buena Vida's debut product delivers. The first launch from the New York-based non-alcoholic wine brand is a dry sparkling Chardonnay, single-souced from organic vineyards in Spain and finished in Germany with next-gen technology. Solos is an advanced aroma-capture technology that preserves natural aromatic compounds in wine to retain flavor and complexity—and St. Buena Vida is the first brand based in the United States to harness Solos in winemaking.
This dry, crisp, well-balanced non-alcoholic Chardonnay delivers the premium qualities modern drinkers are after with notes of pear, lemon zest and a hint of stone fruit and minerality, and rich aromas of ripe pear, green apple skin, fresh citrus, and white flowers.
