North American airport concessionaire Paradies Lagardère has partnered with Atlanta’s non-alcoholic bottle shop The Zero Co. to offer four alcohol-free selections at its wine bar concept Vino Volo starting in January. The two companies aim to help travelers discover flavorful zero-proof drinks for more mindful drinking all year.
“The Zero Co. offerings provide an excellent opportunity for travelers to participate in the Dry January challenge after a busy and indulgent holiday season,” says Larissa Dubose, Paradies Lagardère’s senior director for Vino Volo. The wine bar chain wants to make it easy for travelers to select high-quality options that best suit their lifestyles, she says, “whether a limited reprieve from alcohol or an ongoing preference.”
Vino Volo, which operates 42 locations inside airports across the U.S. and Canada, carries a wide selection of wines from around the world, as well as craft beer, spirits, a food program and retail markets in certain airports. The Zero Co., Atlanta’s first non-alcoholic bottle shop, offers a curated selection of zero-proof beverages, from non-alcoholic wines and spirits to craft mocktails and unique mixers.
The following non-alcoholic beverages, with tasting notes from The Zero Co. general manager Rori Robinson, will be available year-round at all U.S. Vino Volo locations.
