How Do We Make Alcohol-Removed Wine? 

The process begins with our premium full-strength wines. We don’t cut any corners here and use the same quality wine that we sell as our full-strength Estate wines. 

We use innovative spinning cone technology to distil this full-strength wine into three parts – aroma, alcohol, and body. We use the body of the wine and the aroma with just a touch of premium grape juice to produce non-alcoholic wines with balanced flavours. Read more about the wine making process..
