Elaine - I have tried all three and have done tastings with a number of people. It is sweet (that is the goal) and I have had a mixed review. It certainly demonstrates peoples tastes as some love the red, hate the white and the same in reverse. Personally I enjoyed the white more.

It is quite popular and for me the biggest measure is do people buy it a second time and we have experienced many recurring buys.

In order of popularity I would say white, red and blush for our experience but even that appears to vary by state around the country.

I hope this helps.

Has anyone ever tried the Slender Wine from Chateau Thomas Winder in Indiana? If so, how was it?

Wine Spectator
"Unfiltered prefers to drink wine unadulterated, but it seems that some wine drinkers—and winemakers—like to add a little extra sweetness to their glass. Dr. Charles Thomas, founder of Chateau Thomas winery in Indiana, is producing a brand called Slender that is being touted as a "naturally sweetened sugar-free wine." Slender wines are fermented until they're bone-dry, with the vast majority of the sugar converted into alcohol, and then a no-calorie sweetening agent called Zerose is added to mimic the flavor effects of residual sugar. Sheila Kavanaugh, the company's general manager, says that the wines are designed for diabetic or diet-conscious consumers who like sweet wines."

Drinking Wine On A Diet No Longer A Dieting Sin

"Looking for the lowest calorie wine on the market? Well look no further. Slender wines have no calories at all. Yes, you read right. No calories, no carbs, no sugars, no fat, and no glycemic index, either. The great news is that drinking alcohol on a diet is now possible with the recent launch of sugar free Slender wines. This makes them a great choice for both the figure conscious and diabetics who enjoy a glass of vino.
Of course, probably even better news is that Slender wines contain about 12% alcohol content which makes them comparable to your usual bottle of wine."
