WellVine™ is the first company to offer a whole food smart prebiotic ingredient drive from 100% upcycled wine grapes. Sourced entirely from Jackson Family Wines, our Coastal Chardonnay Grapes are rich in a tremendous diversity of oligosaccharides and packed with phenolics to better support beneficial communities of probiotic bacteria while minimizing the growth of undesirable species.
WellVine uses a proprietary method to harvest and dry the fresh pressed grapes resulting in the highest levels of bioactivity. Backed by research from world-class scientists at the University of California, Davis, the United States Department of Agriculture, and the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, WellVine™ is a patented, truly smart prebiotic ingredient with the added benefit of making foods taste better.
