The gourmet, wine-infused jam brand joins an elite group of QVC food favorites competing for consumer votes now through August 12.
Nationwide — Jam Vino, the first-of-its-kind wine-infused gourmet jam created by celebrity chef and cookbook author Lori “Chef Lorious” Rogers, has been nominated in QVC’s 2026 Customer Choice Food Awards for Best Pantry Brand, a brand-new category introduced this year. QVC Customer Choice Food Awards are an annual, shopper-driven recognition program celebrating the food and beverage brands their customers love most. Voting began July 16, 2026, and ends August 12, 2026, at 11:59 PM, with the general public casting their votes online at QVC.com and via the QVC mobile app.
QVC’s reach into more than 80 million U.S. homes carries a weight that goes far beyond numbers. It’s a trust earned, not given — built on decades of curation for a viewer who relies on the network to bring them something worth their attention. For Jam Vino to earn a nomination in an entirely new category is a recognition of that same trust, and a sign that this audience sees Jam Vino’s wine-infused jam not as a novelty, but as a brand and product with staying power.
“This nomination validates our core promise: Everyday luxury for everyday people. Every vote is a reminder of why I started this brand: to share the joy I’ve always found in my kitchen and bring a little luxury that turns everyday moments into memories worth savoring. I’m asking my Jam Vino family — and everyone who has welcomed a jar into their home, shared it with loved ones, or simply cheered us on — to take a moment and vote,” says founder and CEO of Jam Vino, Lori (Chef Lorious) Rogers.
Jam Vino’s three signature flavors, Blackberry Merlot, Raspberry Moscato, and Strueberry Blanc, are crafted with just five all-natural ingredients. Each is 100% real fruit infused with the rich flavor profile of fine wine. As the alcohol cooks down during production, the jams are kid-friendly. In addition, Jam Vino is vegan-friendly and gluten-free. Jam Vino has been featured on “The View”, “Good Morning America”, “Vanity Fair”, “The New Yorker”, QVC’s Gourmet Holiday broadcast, and has become a fixture in Hollywood’s celebrity gifting circuit around the Oscars, Emmys, and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction.
Voting is open now through August 12, 2026, at 11:59 PM ET.
