Napa, CA (March 3, 2026)  Butter Wines, best known for Butter Chardonnaythe number one best-selling premium SKU of Chardonnay (1)introduces ButterZero, a new line of non-alcoholic wines. Crafted to deliver great taste with less than 0.5% alcohol by volume, 65 calories or less per glass (2), and gluten-free, ButterZero expands the Butter portfolio with a premium option for wine consumers seeking more choice. The line launches with four varietalsSparkling Ros, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, and Pinot Noiravailable in 750mL bottles.

ButterZero non-alcoholic wines represent a meaningful evolution of the Butter portfolio, said John Anthony Truchard, Founder of Butter Wines and CEO of John Anthony Wine & Spirits. As adult beverage occasions continue to expand, consumers are looking for options that fit more moments in their lives. ButterZero meets that demand with great-tasting non-alcoholic wines, while staying true to our commitment to quality, approachability, and enjoyment.

Building on the success of ButterLight Chardonnays 2025 debut, voted as the #1 best-tasting light wine (3) and ranked the #1 best-selling low-alcohol Chardonnay in its first year (4), Butter Wines continues to respond to growing interest in lower- and no-alcohol wine options. ButterZero extends Butters focus on great taste into the non-alcoholic wine category, offering easy-to-love options at an accessible price point. Designed to give wine consumers more choice, ButterZero fits seamlessly into a broader range of wine occasions, from weekday gatherings and hosting to buzz-free happy hours, without sacrificing enjoyment.

This launch has been something weve been excited to bring to life for a long time, said Michele Truchard, Co-Founder of Butter Wines. ButterZero offers a delicious, non-alcoholic wine option that still feels social and celebratory. It opens up new ways for people to enjoy wine, whether theyre spending time with friends, hosting at home, or choosing a lighter option.

A recent survey conducted by Talker Research on behalf of ButterZero points to growing interest in non-alcoholic wine, particularly in social settings like happy hour. According to the findings, 60% of respondents say non-alcoholic drinks are appealing during happy hour, and 59% already choose low- or non-alcohol options. Wine also emerged as one of the top low-alcohol beverage choices overall, reinforcing its continued relevance as consumers seek more options. Preferences span generations as wellGen Z is equally likely to choose full- or low-alcohol drinks during happy hour, while baby boomers are more likely than any other group to prefer non-alcoholic options, choosing them over both full- and low-alcohol beverages.

ButterZero is a pivotal addition to the John Anthony Wine & Spirits portfolio, building on consumer demand for ButterLight Chardonnay low-alcohol wine, said Sarah Montague, Chief Marketing Officer of Butter Wines. Our ability to bring great-tasting innovations to the adult beverage category to meet rapidly evolving consumer needs for new formats, varietals, and occasions is critical. Launching ButterZero in a portfolio of four varietals that truly taste amazing is our latest commitment to elevating while we innovate.

ButterZero is available in four varietals, each offering a distinct, easy-drinking style: ButterZero Sparkling Ros is sprightly with strawberry aromas; ButterZero Sauvignon Blanc is tropical, light, and refreshing; ButterZero Chardonnay is smooth, bright, and creamy; and ButterZero Pinot Noir is softly sophisticated and juicy.

To celebrate the launch, Butter Wines is inviting fans nationwide to enter the Win Butter & Blooms for a Year sweepstakes. Three lucky winners will receive a year of fresh bouquets delivered to their door, a grocery gift card, and exclusive limited-edition Butter merch. The sweepstakes is live now through May 17, 2026.
