Our take
What we make of this bottle
This is a California Cabernet Sauvignon sold under the HIIT label, and in our September 2026 checks it was priced between $15.88 and $16.88. Who actually makes it is not something we can confirm. Guides to the grape describe black currant, cherry and plum with firm tannin, and they add that ripeness and winemaking can leave a Cabernet leaner and more herbal or riper and full of fruit.
So far the shopper ratings sit low: an average of 3.5 out of five from 4 ratings, near the bottom of the reds that carry ratings here. The words Low Calorie appear in the recorded product name, without asserting a benefit.
HIIT's own site is specific about the numbers behind the low-calorie claim: the producer lists 85 calories, 5 grams of carbohydrates, 1 gram of protein and zero fat in a 5-ounce serving, at 9 percent alcohol, well under the roughly 12 to 15 percent typical of most table wine. The producer describes the wine itself as carrying “high intensity flavors like dark cherry, plum, baking spices, white pepper and sage,” finishing “smooth and velvety,” the producer's words.
Our call: a reasonable low-calorie pick if the producer's own numbers are what you are shopping on; HIIT states 9 percent alcohol and 85 calories in a 5-ounce serving plainly on its own site. Pass if the shopper crowd carries weight in your decision; the four ratings on record average 3.5 out of five, near the bottom of the reds that carry ratings here, and four ratings is barely a start.

Research status
What we are still checking
Our overview above draws on the dated store feed, shopper ratings, our region and grape research, and any sourced producer facts. We are still working to confirm the current release, the full producer record, and the bottle itself, and we update this page as we learn more.
Getting to know California.
California on the label is useful provenance but weak detail about place. For these wines, sourcing disclosure, blend construction and house-style consistency carry more decision value than a generic climate paragraph.
What the name means
A state-level appellation, broader than an individual American Viticultural Area. It permits a multi-region blend and does not by itself identify one climate or soil.
How grapes grow here
The state spans cool maritime zones and hot inland valleys. A California designation alone does not reveal which conditions shaped the fruit.
What lies under the vines
At state scale, sourcing and house-style construction matter more than any single soil story.
How large the region is
- Reusable question
- Which counties or AVAs supplied the blend, and did that mix change by release?
Places within the region
- Resolution limit
- County, AVA and vineyard claims begin only when the release names them.
Getting to know Cabernet Sauvignon.
Cabernet Sauvignon is a red grape grown in many wine regions. It often makes firmly built wines and is also a common part of red blends.
Category guide
What to expect in the glass
Regional authorities describe black currant, cherry and plum as common fruit references, with noticeable tannin and possible spice from oak. Ripeness, climate and winemaking can move the wine from lean and herbal to broad and fruit-led.
