Which wine brand sells the most in America? The answer is Barefoot. As Chowhound reports, the American Association of Wine Economists has named it the leading U.S. wine brand for many years, and it sold more than 19 million cases in 2023. But Barefoot is mostly a grocery-shelf wine.
This list is for people who want wines they can order online, give as gifts, or serve at a nice dinner. Among those, Josh Cellars leads, followed by La Marca Prosecco. Veuve Clicquot and Moët & Chandon dominate the Champagne side.
It is a tough year for wine overall. Impact Databank expects U.S. wine volume to fall 3.5% in 2026, dropping below 300 million cases for the first time in more than 15 years. Still, a few brands keep growing, and this guide shows which ones.
Quick Answer: Top 10 Best-Selling Wines in the USA at a Glance
The best-selling wines in the USA that you can order online are Josh Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon, La Marca Prosecco, Meiomi Pinot Noir, Decoy Cabernet Sauvignon, and Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio, followed by Mionetto, Veuve Clicquot, Moët & Chandon, Caymus, and La Crema.

How We Ranked These Wines
To create this list, we reviewed recent U.S. wine-market data, including brand sales volume, growth trends, price segments, and retail performance. Our primary source is Impact Databank, whose U.S. wine reports track brand-level depletions and market trends across wine segments. We also considered how consistently each brand appears in current U.S. retail and sparkling-wine data.
The wines featured here are relevant to the U.S. market and available to shoppers through our online store. Picks 11 to 26 are additional popular and premium brands rather than strict volume ranks.
Rankings change depending on whether they are measured by volume, dollar value, price tier, or sales channel. Treat this list as a practical guide to leading and popular wine brands, not a single official nationwide ranking. We will update it as newer U.S. wine-market figures are released.

Wine prices vary widely, so browsing popular wines by price range can help you find a bottle that fits both your taste and your budget.

Prices can vary by bottle size, vintage, and product. Check the individual product page for current pricing, or see our best-selling wine and Champagne gifts under $99.
Best-Selling Wines by Occasion
The right wine depends on where you are serving it or who it is for. A weeknight-dinner wine is not always the one you would choose for a wedding, birthday, or formal gift.
For a dinner at home, approachable reds such as Josh Cellars and Meiomi are easy choices. They work with a variety of meals and do not need a special occasion. See our wine and food pairing guide for more ideas.
For a steak dinner, fuller-bodied reds such as DAOU and Decoy suit rich, hearty food. Their bolder character pairs naturally with steak and grilled meats. Our Cabernet Sauvignon food pairing guide has more.
For brunches, showers, and daytime celebrations, sparkling wines such as La Marca are a natural fit. If you prefer rosé, Whispering Angel works well for lighter gatherings and warm-weather occasions.
For big celebrations, Veuve Clicquot and Moët & Chandon are classic choices. Their recognizable names suit weddings, anniversaries, milestone birthdays, and any occasion where you want the wine to feel special.
For light dinners or wine gifts, Santa Margherita and Oyster Bay are useful options. Their refreshing styles pair easily with seafood, salads, appetizers, and other light foods.
US Wine Market Trends in 2026
- Volume keeps falling. U.S. wine volume peaked at about 344 million cases in 2020 and has dropped each year since.
- People are paying more for fewer bottles. Growth is coming from higher-priced brands like Josh, Daou, and Veuve Clicquot. This is called premiumization.
- A few brands are still growing. Impact Databank projects Josh Cellars to grow 2% to 6.5 million cases and La Marca Prosecco to grow 5% to 3.7 million cases. Mionetto (+3.5%) and Decoy (+1%) are also forecast to gain.
- Tariffs are pushing up European prices. One industry report says European wine prices in the U.S. have risen by as much as 25%. That helps American and New Zealand brands.
- Wine cocktails are growing. Wine-based cocktail products reached 18 million cases last year. Without them, the overall wine market decline this year would be closer to 5%.
How to Choose the Right Wine for You
- Start with taste. Do you like sweet and fruity, dry and crisp, light and smooth, or bold?
- Set a budget. Great bottles exist at every price.
- Match the food. Red with red meat, crisp white with fish, and bubbles with almost anything. See our pairing guide.
- Think about the occasion. Gifts often work best with a recognized name such as Veuve Clicquot, Moët, or Santa Margherita.

What is the best-selling red wine in the US?
Cabernet Sauvignon is the top-selling red grape variety. Among California brands priced above $10, Josh Cellars is one of the biggest names, and Meiomi is a leading Pinot Noir. If you prefer a softer red than Cabernet, Meiomi and La Crema are popular choices.

What is the best wine to gift if I don't know the person's taste?
Choose a crowd-pleaser. A smooth, fruit-forward red such as Meiomi or La Crema Pinot Noir suits most red wine drinkers, while a sparkling wine such as La Marca Prosecco works for almost any celebration. For a more special occasion, Veuve Clicquot or Moët & Chandon Champagne is a safe, recognizable gift.

What is the best wine gift for him?
Taste matters more than gender, so start with what he usually drinks.

Again, start with her taste. Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio is a crisp, easy-drinking white that works for most occasions, and Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc is a bright, citrusy option. If she prefers something richer, try Josh Cellars Chardonnay. For a celebration, Whispering Angel rosé or La Marca Prosecco are popular alternatives.
What is the best wine to bring to a dinner party?
A bottle that pairs easily with many dishes is the safest choice. Josh Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon or Meiomi Pinot Noir work well for red wine drinkers, Santa Margherita Pinot Grigio suits lighter meals, and La Marca Prosecco is a festive option for any hosted gathering.
