Cupcake Vineyards Expands Portfolio With Ready-To-Serve Mimosas and Alcohol-Removed Sauvignon Blanc
The new Cupcake Vineyards Mimosas are available in two flavors – Classic Orange and Mango. Answering the growing consumer demand for wine-based cocktails, the Cupcake Vineyards ready-to-serve mimosas are crafted with bubbly brut wine from Spain and real fruit juice. With 7% alcohol, these refreshing mimosas are brunch ready, filled with vibrant tropical notes balanced by bright acidity.
According to IWSR consumer research, more than 50% of legal drinking-age American consumers say they are moderating their alcohol consumption. Cupcake Vineyards’ new Alcohol-Removed California Sauvignon Blanc provides a delicious and refreshing alternative consumers can enjoy when looking to cut back on alcohol. This new offering is in addition to the existing Cupcake Vineyards LightHearted line of lower calorie and lower alcohol wines. The new alcohol-removed option begins with a traditional California Sauvignon Blanc that undergoes the full winemaking process, before gently removing the alcohol post-fermentation.
“The Cupcake Vineyards consumer relies on us for quality, go-to products to enjoy across multiple occasions. With the addition of the pre-mixed Cupcake Vineyards Mimosas and Cupcake Vineyards Alcohol-Removed Sauvignon Blanc, we are not only introducing innovative items to the portfolio, but also continuing to provide quality offerings that meet consumers where they are across a spectrum of occasions,” said Helen Kurtz, Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) of The Wine Group.
“Cupcake Vineyards is about turning everyday moments into celebrations, whatever that may look like. Wine is meant to bring people together. The new Cupcake Vineyards Mimosas and Alcohol-Removed Sauvignon Blanc continue that tradition, while inviting more people to join in, creating more opportunities for moments of joy,” said Jessica Tomei, Cupcake Vineyards winemaker.
In addition to these new items, Cupcake Vineyards has also refreshed its labels across the entire portfolio. Maintaining the signature yellow and blue of the Cupcake logo, the new designs center the Cupcake wordmark with a bold font and highlight the world-class wine growing regions for each varietal. The surrounding filigree and ribbons were simplified and refined across the portfolio for a consistent, elevated and modern take on the iconic design.
The Cupcake Vineyards Mimosa is available in a 750 mL bottle and retails for an SRP of $13.99. The Cupcake Vineyards Alcohol-Removed Sauvignon Blanc is available in a 750 mL bottle and retails for an SRP of $9.99. Both line extensions will be on shelves beginning in March 2025 at select retailers nationwide.
