SUNDOWN | Alcohol-Removed Rosé
Pinot Grigio + Pinot Noir · California · <0.5% ABV · 35 cal/5oz · $28.99
SUNDOWN is Solubrae's rosé, a blend of Pinot Grigio and Pinot Noir sourced from California vineyards and made through traditional winemaking before a gentle, cold-temperature process removes the alcohol. The Pinot Grigio provides bright acidity and floral lift. The Pinot Noir contributes color, body, and the berry character that makes SUNDOWN taste like a real rosé rather than a tinted white. Together they build a wine with genuine depth and a clean, dry finish.
California rosé has a distinct identity: fruit-forward but dry, structured but approachable, with a warmth that pairs well with food and equally well with an evening that takes its time. SUNDOWN is built in that tradition. It's the bottle you open when the evening is worth doing properly, when you want something good in the glass and everyone at the table to feel the same way.
Tasting Notes
On the nose: wild strawberry, fresh watermelon, and a soft rose-petal lift. On the palate: the fruit is ripe but not sweet, melon and berry leading into a dry, clean finish with real structure. Serve well chilled at 45-50 degrees F.
Food Pairings
Fresh salads with berries and citrus vinaigrette, grilled salmon, light pasta dishes, brie and soft cheeses, strawberry-topped desserts, or a charcuterie board laid out before the sun goes down. SUNDOWN's fruit-forward character and dry finish make it an easy match for the food that tends to show up at warm-weather gatherings: casual, fresh, with a little acid and a little sweetness in the mix.
Why Alcohol-Removed?
Solubrae starts with premium California grapes and crafts the wine through traditional winemaking. After fermentation, a gentle, cold-temperature process removes the alcohol while leaving the color, the aromatics, the fruit, and the finish intact.
SUNDOWN was made for evenings that call for a real glass of wine. Not a substitute or a mocktail with wine packaging, but a genuine, well-made California rosé that gives everyone at the table the same experience, at less than 0.5% ABV and 35 calories per 5oz pour.
The Sundown Difference
Most alcohol-removed wines compensate for the missing alcohol with residual sugar, which leaves the finished product tasting sweet and flat. SUNDOWN starts with two California varietals that drive toward dryness from the beginning: Pinot Grigio for bright acidity and Pinot Noir for tannic structure and color. Both are grown in California's cool coastal regions where grapes ripen at a measured pace and natural acidity stays high, and the wine is fermented to dryness before alcohol removal, so the dry finish doesn't need to be manufactured.
Why You'll Love It

About Solubrae
Solubrae was founded by actress Patricia Heaton and producer David Hunt of FourBoys Entertainment, two people with deep roots in California who believe great wine should be available to everyone at the table. SUNDOWN reflects that vision: a California rosé built for real evenings with real people. The dry finish is the direct result of that commitment: Patricia Heaton and David Hunt built Solubrae around wine that doesn't ask you to compromise, and SUNDOWN is what that looks like in the glass.
