What differentiates Fun Wine from traditional Wine? Fun Wine is a new beverage category of recreational wine drinks for the general population. It is defined not by vintage, heritage or other highbrow hallmarks of wine, and is not for wine aficionados. You do not sniff it. You do not swirl it in a glass. You do not tout its origin. You do not pour it into red or white wine glasses. Fun Wine does not compete with wine, but is an everyday fun and affordable recreational drink for the masses – and The Alternative to Beer.
The new beverage category is distributed in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Bronx, Staten Island, Nassau and Suffolk by Union Beer Distributors. Upstate distributors include Try-It Distributing -- Niagara and Erie, and DeCrescente Distributing -- Albany, Columbia, Fulton, Greene, Montgomery, Rensselaer, Saratoga, Schenectady, Schoharie, Washington, and Warren. Retailers include CVS Health, 7-Eleven, Tops Markets and many convenience stores.
