Family-owned Australian wine brand Fourth Wave Wine has launched a new vegan-friendly, zero-proof, organic wine line called Sobriety Society. Coinciding with the new launch, the company will also be releasing a premium range of Plus & Minus wines sourced from Barossa Valley and Adelaide Hills in South Australia.
"The demand for zero-alcohol wines has rocketed in the last twelve months with many Australians simply choosing to consume less or even no alcohol. This is seen across all age groups but particularly amongst 18–24-year-olds, where the number of non-drinkers has doubled in the past 20 years," said Fourth Wave Wine general manager Ross Marshall.
The new Sobriety Society line will include three bottlings: Blac dd Blancs, Chardonnay, and Shiraz Tempranillo, all of which will contain zero alcohol.
