What it is

Natural wine flavor is a flavoring substance derived from wine. It is created by extracting volatile compounds from wine, often through processes like distillation or evaporation, to capture its aroma and taste.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use natural wine flavor to impart a wine-like taste to food products without using actual wine. It is commonly found in savory items such as marinades, sauces, processed meats like pepperoni and salami, and some soup mixes.

Health notes

In the U.S., natural wine flavor is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a flavoring. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated flavoring substances, and they are permitted for use. At typical consumption levels, no adverse health effects are expected.

Allergen info

Natural wine flavor is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
