## Story
A New Kind of Drinking CultureBirdy is building a new category at the intersection of wine, RTDs, and wellness.Today’s drinkers want something different. They want options that are lighter, more intentional, and designed for real life. Traditional choices force a trade-off. You either drink full-strength alcohol or skip drinking altogether. Birdy lives in the middle.Birdy is a 3% ABV wine spritzer made with an organic wine base, low sugar, and fewer than 100 calories. It is light, crisp, and sessionable. It is the kind of drink you can enjoy on the lake, at brunch, or around the fire with friends without sacrificing tomorrow.We like to say:Live today. Enjoy tomorrow.
