Proxies are layered blends of juices, teas, spices, bitters, and more with all the complexity of great wine, and none of the alcohol.

Proxies don’t necessarily taste exactly like any specific wine, but are designed to look, feel, and drink like wine. They have acidity, texture, tannin, and spice and are crafted to pair with food and be enjoyed in wine glasses. Wine, but not.

Conventional non-alcoholic wines are made by stripping the alcohol out of wine (usually cheap bulk wine, at that). The result is a drink that tastes next-to-nothing like the real thing. They’re sweet, lack complexity, and don’t pair well with food. Proxies, by contrast, are designed from the start with flavor and the ability to pair with food in mind. They’re designed to be an effective proxy, not a pale imitation. Instead of dealcoholized plonk, we craft layered blends of juices, teas, spices, bitters, and more. More details on the difference between Proxies and conventional non-alcoholic wine are available here.

Proxies have a nine month shelf-life and are best stored in a cool dark place like you would with wine. After opening, pop the cork back in and enjoy within one week.

Proxies are best enjoyed in wine glasses and are designed to pair with food. For optimal flavor—or if you’re just feeling fancy—try decanting your Proxies before serving.

We work hard to ensure that Proxies are free of harmful bacteria and safe for everyone to consume. To create the best flavor possible, Proxies do contain a portion of cold-pressed juice. While these juices are not pasteurized in the traditional sense, we always bring them to a low pH that kills off any bacteria such as salmonella, listeriosis, and E. coli before blending them with our other ingredients. 

While Proxies are non-alcoholic beverages, they may contain trace amounts of alcohol, just like kombucha, or even foods containing vanilla extract. Proxies always fall below 0.5% alcohol by volume (the threshold to be classified as non-alcoholic according to the FDA and other regulatory agencies).

We are mindful that people make different choices when it comes to pregnancy, so if you’re concerned please consult your healthcare provider for more guidance. 

The Tasting Set is the ideal introduction to the world of Proxies. This four-pack of our core flavors features two whites—one crisp and herbal, the other lush and aromatic—, a refreshing rosé, and an elegant red.

All Proxies are vegan and gluten-free.

Most Proxies are made with some form of caffeinated tea and typically contain about 1/4 the amount of caffeine as would be in a similar size serving of tea.

Full nutritional information is available on each product page. Proxies are low in calories—typically about 1/4 of a glass of wine—and full of flavor.
