The Napa house behind Butter Chardonnay, taking the alcohol out of the wines it already makes.
John and Michele Truchard are second-generation Napa Valley vintners and the J and M in JaM Cellars. Butter Chardonnay began there with a thousand cases and became the wine most Americans meet first in that aisle.
ButterZero arrived in March 2026 and is made the same way round: the wine is made in California first, then the alcohol comes out. Four varietals — Sparkling Rosé, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir — all in 750 mL bottles.
The house line has always been that a wine has to taste good before anything else about it matters, and the same winemaking team took several years over this one before putting the Butter name on it.
