"Sweet Cherry Wine" is a song performed by Tommy James and the Shondells from their 1969 album, Cellophane Symphony.

The song was co-written by James and Richie Grasso, another singer-songwriter signed to Morris Levy's Roulette Records.

Adding to the feel of this form of music, this and other songs on the album included the then-new Moog synthesizer.

James, in an interview on the Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN) in 2010 stated that the song "was about the blood of Jesus" and acknowledged that many fans and peers assumed it was drug related.

He would resume working at Allegro Sound Studios after he recorded Sweet Cherry Wine.
