Pure Light 6%

New Zealand

Sauvignon Blanc

50% less alcohol, 45% less calories without compromising on flavour.


We’ve crafted our Pure Light range to have maximum flavour with less alcohol and less calories than full strength wines. So you can have it all…..with less.

At 6% alc./vol. this wine is 50% lighter in alcohol compared to our standard Giesen Sauvignon Blanc (12.5% alc./vol), with only 48 calories and 1.6g of sugar per 125ml glass.

We select premium New Zealand fruit for our Pure Light Sauvignon Blanc. We go through the entire winemaking process to craft a full-strength Sauvignon Blanc wine and then use advanced spinning cone technology to delicately dealcoholise the wine down to 6% alcohol/volume which leaves us with a Sauvignon Blanc wine full of flavour….with only half the alcohol.

Crisp and refreshing, expect pure tropical fruit and citrus flavours with nuances of freshly cut herbs from this wonderfully balanced, lighter-in-alcohol New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc.

No and Low Alcohol

When we say there's a Giesen wine for every occasion, we mean it! If you're reducing or moderating your alcohol intake, these alcohol-removed and low alc wines offer a delicious alternative.

Vineyard

Marlborough - Marlborough, Waipara, New Zealand.

Winemaking

After harvest the Sauvignon Blanc fruit was batch-harvested at perfect ripeness with balanced tropical fruit, citrus and herbal flavours.

Fermented cool in stainless steel tanks to retain purity of fruit flavour and freshness, the wine then spent three months on less to build texture.

After blending, some of the alcohol was gently removed using spinning cone technology to give a full flavoured 6% alc./vol. Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc that’s deliciously fresh, with 50% lower alcohol and 45% less calories compared to 12.5% alc./vol/wine.

Reviews

"This is terrific. Low in alcohol but not lacking in flavour; showing passionfruit, kiwifruit and white flesh nectarine characters on the nose, leading to a flavoursome palate that's lively and lingering. "
