Sip Better: A Conscious Approach to Enjoying Wine
Sip Better: A Conscious Approach to Enjoying Wine
At Sip Better, we believe wine should be savored with intention, joy, and a deep appreciation for who it's made by as well as where + how it's made. That’s why we champion wines that align with a mindful, health-conscious lifestyle—wines that prioritize purity, transparency, and balance. Our focus on low-ABV wines and conscious moderation allows you to enjoy wine in a way that aligns with your well-being without compromising on quality or experience.
The Sip Better Standard: What Makes a Wine Healthy?
Not all wines are created equal. Mass-produced wines often contain added sugars, concentrates, and artificial additives—things that don’t belong in a bottle of true, authentic wine. At Sip Better, we exclusively curate wines that reflect the integrity of their origins, focusing on:
-
Family-Owned Wineries – We support small, independent producers who take pride in sustainable and ethical farming practices that include organic + biodynamic standards.
-
No Sugars, Additives, or Concentrates – The wines we carry are made with nothing but grapes and the care of skilled winemakers.
-
Low Alcohol, High Enjoyment – Our selection highlights low-ABV wines that allow you to enjoy a glass (or two) while staying balanced + mindful.
As our founder, Leslee says: I often think of wine as food. What I put in my body means a great deal to me—from my make-up to my hair + skin care products to my food, I consciously select products that are as authentic as possible, created with natural ingredients. Therefore, I select my wines just like my food at a market—I select products based on how they are grown, created + packaged. Products that don't come with a whole list of 'unnatural' ingredients that ultimately won't make my body feel all that great. Because wine does not give you a list of 'what' is in the bottle (did you know that U.S. winemakers can add over 100 additional agents to a bottle of wine now that has nothing to do with the actual grape??), I have always found it just as important to select my wines from the farmers, families + communities that I know do NOT subscribe to these commercial practices. This is the CORE of why I started Sip Better—I only support folks who craft natural products at the highest farming standards, without altering the end product. That's why we have a line-up of wines at Sip Better that ultimately allows myself + all of our amazing supporters at Sip Better to feel GOOD when sipping a glass from any one of our producers on the shelf.
Conscious Moderation: A Balanced Approach to Wine
Drinking wine is about more than just consumption—it’s about appreciation.
Conscious moderation means embracing wine as a complement to your lifestyle rather than something to overindulge in. Choosing lower-alcohol options can help you stay present, feel better the next day, and enjoy the nuanced flavors without feeling weighed down.
This past January, Leslee had the opportunity to showcase a selection of low-ABV wines + delicious non-alcoholic options on The Jason Show, Fox 9. This segment highlighted just how easy it is to enjoy wine and wine alternatives in a way that aligns with your health-conscious goals. Whether it’s a crisp, naturally fermented white wine or a beautifully balanced non-alcoholic cocktail, the Sip Better philosophy ensures that you can enjoy every sip guilt-free.
The Future of Wine is Mindful
At Sip Better, our mission is clear: to help you make better choices when it comes to wine, whether that means choosing sustainably farmed, low-ABV wines or discovering delicious non-alcoholic alternatives. We believe that wine should enhance your life, not hinder it, and we’re here to provide you with options that make moderation effortless and enjoyable!
So, the next time you pour yourself a glass, choose a wine that aligns with your values—one that’s crafted with care, void of unnecessary additives, and mindful of both your well-being and the planet.
Sip consciously. Choose Sip Better.
