Quick Facts: ABV: 12.5%  |  Origin: California, USA  |  Varietal: Pinot Noir  |  Producer: The Wine Group

Production & Heritage

Ava Grace is produced by The Wine Group, one of California's largest wine companies. The rosé is made from Pinot Noir grapes sourced across California, vinified in a light, dry style that emphasizes fresh fruit character and balanced acidity. Each 375ml can holds the equivalent of two standard glasses of wine and contains the same wine found in the brand's 750ml bottle — the format simply swaps glass for aluminum, which provides a shelf life of roughly 15–18 months and eliminates the risk of cork taint.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Fresh watermelon and raspberry lead the nose, followed by delicate hints of wild roses and stone fruit. The bouquet is light and inviting without any heaviness.

Taste: The palate opens with bright red berry flavors — raspberry and strawberry — before transitioning into ripe apricot and a touch of honeysuckle at mid-palate. Citrus notes add lift and keep the wine feeling crisp, while a soft, round texture gives it easy-drinking appeal.

Finish: The finish is dry, clean, and moderate in length, with lingering notes of citrus zest and subtle stone fruit. Balanced acidity carries through to the close, leaving the palate refreshed.

How to Drink Ava Grace Rosé

Straight from the can, well chilled to around 45–50°F, is the most natural way to enjoy this wine — the aluminum format keeps it cold longer than a glass pour. Pour into a wine glass at home to fully appreciate the aromatics. The Ava Grace Rosé also works in three simple wine-based cocktails: a Frosé, where the bright berry notes intensify when blended frozen; a Rosé Spritz topped with sparkling water and a grapefruit slice, playing off the wine's citrus backbone; and a Sangria Rosada, where the apricot and watermelon flavors meld naturally with sliced summer fruit.

Best For

• Beach days, pool parties, and outdoor concerts where glass isn't allowed
• Packing a picnic cooler without worrying about corkscrew or breakage
• A single-serve option for weeknight dinners when opening a full bottle feels excessive
• Hosting casual summer gatherings where guests can grab individual cans

Why Ava Grace Rosé?

What separates Ava Grace from the growing crowd of canned rosés is its single-varietal Pinot Noir base and its track record with critics — an 88-point Wine Enthusiast Best Buy is uncommon territory for wine sold in a can. The wine inside is identical to the 750ml bottle, so there is no quality compromise for the sake of convenience. The 375ml format solves a real problem for anyone who wants a glass or two of rosé without committing to a full bottle, and the aluminum packaging keeps the wine colder longer while eliminating concerns about breakage or shelf degradation. In a category that too often trades quality for novelty, Ava Grace delivers a genuinely well-made California rosé that happens to come in a can.
