In recent years, non-alcoholic wines have risen to popularity. Thanks to a handful of impressive booze-free brands hitting the market, they’re not just for those who are abstaining from alcohol.
These robustly flavored beverages are great for anyone continuing on their Dry January journey, entertaining sober guests, or trying something new for weeknight happy hours. Still, just like that box of chocolate you’ve been eying, not all non-alcoholic-vino is created equal. That’s why we set out on the lofty but lovable task of sitting back and sipping up dozens of non-alcoholic wines to cull the best of the bunch.
Whether you’re celebrating Galentine’s Day, kicking back solo with a good movie and takeout, or spending Cupid’s celebration with your partner, here are our ten favorite non-alcoholic wines for Valentine's Day — or just another Tuesday night. In fact, we hear all these picks pair well with fresh flowers and mood lighting, friends.

All cheers (and Saluds) are welcomed!
Get ready to say cheers (or salud) with this nuanced, pink-hued non-alcoholic rosé and thank us later. Produced in Spain with traditional winemaking methods before going through a dealcoholization process, this rosé is crafted to replace your typical vino. Dim the lights while you indulge in this Halal-certified beverage, and you may very well think you’re drinking the real deal.
These fancy bottles will elevate your Valentine's night in.
When we tried Studio Null's alcohol-removed wines, we were pleasantly surprised by how close they tasted to the real thing. We sampled both the white Blanc Burgunder and the red Solo Garnacha; the white was crisp and refreshing, and the red was pleasantly dry with the right balance of acidity.
You can also opt to go for the The Second Release duo from Null, which includes Solo Garnacha and a Sparkling Verdejo—the perfect combo for a candlelight dinner and bottle-popping dessert.
A recent tasting session of this delightful bubbly had us feeling like we were on cloud nine. Due to the "reverse osmosis" process, this wine removes any alcohol from the final product, so you can wave goodbye to any unwanted side effects of downing three glasses come the morning after.
Made with Muscat grapes, trust this French maker that has been in the wine business since 1725 for your Valentine’s Day imbibing, so you won’t be disappointed.
With only 15 calories, Casa Emma (which is exclusively offered at Better Rhodes) is packed with some serious flavors.
If you’re looking to savor a dry red wine alternative this Valentine’s Day, pop open a bottle of this delectable ruby-red non-alcoholic wine, bottled and imported from Italy exclusively for Better Rhodes.
Think: Notes of blackberry, currant, and white peach, with an extra dry finish. We love this one accompanying a decadent chocolate dessert or roasted vegetables and proteins. Some chocolate gifts with a bottle of this red are definitely in our future.
Jukes Cordialities wine is a small treat from overseas!
For something a little different, try this premium non-alcoholic beverage that's handmade in London. Each box contains nine two-serving bottles, which you mix with water and/or juice before serving. There are three varieties: white Jukes 1, red Jukes 6, and rosé Jukes 8.
Be sure to expect funky and exciting flavor profiles here due to the two dozen fruits, vegetables, fresh and dried herbs, spices, and flowers. Crafted with an apple cider vinegar base, it doesn’t exactly taste like wine, but considering it's the brainchild of Matthew Jukes, a celebrated wine-taster and writer with 30+ years of experience in the industry, it’s safe to say these drinks really light up just-another-boring-night-on-the-couch…we mean, Valentine’s Day.
This clever set of wine comes in three tasty flavor options.
White wine fans will love this selection from Vinada. The French wine features a mix of Chardonnay grapes, has a beautiful bead when you pour, and showcases notes of apple, melon, and more. If you like this varietal, Vinada’s sparkling rosé wine is another top-notch non-alcoholic pick.
There’s just something about drinking from a four-pack, on your couch, with someone you love that we so adore. If you agree with that sentiment, pick up this 0% ABV rosé wine. It’s dry, without being overly sweet, and bound to be a new happy hour go-to.
A robust red with an upscale feel? We'll take two please.
How does a Cab Sauv brimming with black currants and cherry sound to you? Throw in toasty oak, spices, mint, and herbs, and we’re in a zero-proof wine oasis. This imported nonalcoholic wine from Germany is just the thing for your at-home Valentine’s Day celebration or just about any dinner with your better half.
Feel free to mix this tasty rosè with tonic or seltzer.
Remind us why we opted for splitting headaches over splitting a bottle of NA wine with loved ones again? This Valentine’s Day, say cheers, ahem, “Töst” with this enchanting (and affordable!) rosé that electrifies your palate with white tea, elderberry, and ginger. It’s got the perfect balance of flavors and isn’t too sweet, but some may enjoy using this as a mixer with seltzer or tonic water.
