The brand sells five core wines—Red Blend, Pink River Rosé, Sparking White, White, & Sparkling Rosé—as well as four limited-edition wines throughout the year. Each can has an ABV of 13%, equivalent to your average glass of wine. In addition, all Nomadica wines are low sulfur and fermented dry, with 0g sugar and no added SO2. Pair your can of wine with a vegan cheese wedge for the perfect holiday snack!
