Zeena has won two gold medals at the most important international canned wine competition held in California this summer. Enjoying recognition for its white and sparkling wines, the brand was the only Spanish winner in the competition.

Spanish winner in the competition.

Zeena Blanco Organic & Vegan 2021 is a single varietal white Grenache from Terra Alta, with an elegant and bright golden hue, clean aroma with floral and citrus tones, dry and fresh in the mouth, with a light body. The sparkling wine, on the other hand, is made from 100% Parellada grapes, with an intense and clean nose and fruity notes of fresh white fruit, apples and citrus. Produced in the Cava area (Catalonia), it has a 9.5% alcohol by volume, which makes it a light and versatile drink, to be consumed on its own or in a mixer.

In formats of 250ml and 187ml for the white, and 250ml and 200ml for the sparkling, both references are packaged in recycled and recyclable aluminum, hermetically sealed and protected by an internal film of VINSAFE to maintain its aroma and flavor unaltered. Their free and rebellious character is based on the ‘a sip of freedom’ movement promoted by the brand: a shift towards a positive attitude, aimed at dynamic, urban people who seek to discover new ways to enjoy their passion wherever and whenever they want.

For Sana Khouja, founder and CEO of Mindful Drinkers, this award is “an international recognition of the quality of the wines we produce. This contest is a pioneer in the category of canned wines, and the most relevant today, with a large representation of wines from different wine regions of the world. The USA is the number one country in volume in this category, so the fact that the American market endorses Zeena’s quality with an award is a guarantee of success. Undoubtedly, it is also the “push” we needed to enter the world’s leading canned wine market.”
