Non-alcoholic wines are growing in demand as more are choosing to limit their alcohol intake. As the biggest retail chain in the country, Walmart is responding with several options.
Walmart has a wide selection of non-alcoholic wines online, but much fewer in-store. These include (but are not limited to) Ariel, Chateau De Fleur, Fre, Jacob’s Creek, Surely, Starla, and NON.
There are, of course, more options outside of Walmart. But there are a few to choose from in this selection if you’re just trying things out for the first time. Below, I’ve listed the options with tasting notes for Walmart’s non-alcoholic wine selection.
At the bottom, I’ve named the top picks from these with links to more detailed reviews.
What is Non-Alcoholic Wine?
Non-alcoholic wine is a general term for a non-alcoholic drink that’s enjoyed as you would a wine, sometimes made exactly like wine, and it has less than 0.5% alcohol by volume.
Non-alcoholic wine can be made in multiple ways, but a popular method is to make a traditional wine, then remove the alcohol.
Though called “non-alcoholic”, not all NA wines have zero alcohol. Some may have small traces of alcohol but the amount is small enough for it to still be categorized under non-alcoholic beverages. Read more about non-alcoholic wine and how it’s made and where to buy it.
Non-alcoholic sparkling wine is one of the best non-alcoholic options for a festive beverage for most people and most occasions. Non-alcoholic red wine tends to miss the mark as an exact flavor substitute, but they are improving.
