Low-Alcohol Flavored Wine

About

Low-Alcohol Flavored Wine

Low-Alcohol Flavored Wines are a category of wine that generally fall into the 6-11% ABV range, and can be any flavor. They are very often lighter in body and color due to the lower ABV and the way they are made. Wine, as we know, has many healthy attributes, the most widely known being those which help with heart health. Studies have proven that removal of the alcohol does not remove the helpful antioxidants. In combination with the emergence of the sobriety trend, low alcohol wines have been growing in acceptance and continue to increase in availability.
