We believe in Low-ABV. We believe in building flavors, developing new production methods and creating the next generation of wine products to meet the evolving tastes and preferences of consumers today. Our Lite Werk line pushes those boundaries to create a 7% alcohol, naturally flavored and delicious wine-like beverage at a great price point. We want to show that wine can stretch beyond just bottle lists and by-the-glass placements into new occasions and formats – Lite Werk can be enjoyed as a cocktail ingredient, over ice as a Low-ABV spritz and more

We re-fermented grape pomace (piquette) from direct-pressed rosé and carbonic red wines for 3-7 days and blended with 30% finished wine (Tempranillo, Zinfandel, and Grenache). We infused the wine with heirloom Oaxacan hibiscus tea. The base wine was fermented with native yeast and bacteria and a light bottle re-fermentation was initiated with a Champagne yeast starter.

You can find Agua de Jamaica at all the best taco stands in LA. Lite Werk Hisbicus is our nod to that LA staple. But, it’s not just for tacos, it’s the perfect low-abv pairing for any occasion.
