Proxies earns polarized reviews: enthusiasts praise the complex, botanical blends (Sauvage, Blanc Sheep, white bubbles, Gold Crush) and elegant packaging, while many find the liquids too sweet, vinegary, or kombucha-like and not a convincing wine alternative. Reviews of Proxies highlight intriguing flavor notes and a festive, alcohol-free ritual, but recurrent complaints cite undrinkable reds (Big Red, Red Ember), medicinal aromas, and disappointment relative to expectations of wine.

  • As someone who does not drink alcohol, I'm always on the hunt for creative drinks. I had the opportunity to try the Pastiche flavor and it was fantastic. It's a creative blend of flavors that paired nicely with my meal.

    I wish I could find this product in more stores and on menus at restaurants.

  • Absolutely love proxies. I look forward to a glass of this so much more than even wine. So good. Totally feel special when poured in a stemmed wine glass. Really helping me cut down on my weekday drinking.

    Start with one of the mixed packs! That way you can figure out what you like before committing to a 4-pack.

  • It's giving complexity, it's giving I can do a workout after enjoying this with dinner, it's giving EVERYTHING!! First sip to the last drop I'm a full Proxies fangirl!
