Vineyard
Vineyards in the valley range from cooler, drier inland sites, to stony, early-ripening sites, to sea-breeze moderated coastal sites. Soils are more gravelly to the north nearer the riverbed. Within this region, wines reflect the individual vineyard and producer strengths but all have the hallmark pure fruit intensity and body. This gives us incredible scope to honour the individual vineyard and unique vintage our wines have come from.

Viticulture
Our climate and soil are crucial to the character of our wines and show the diversity of the stunning Marlborough region. We work in harmony with this beautiful environment as our means of paying it tribute.
Vinification
This wine was crafted to provide an alcohol-removed option that still exhibits typical Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc characteristics. We create premium, full-strength Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, before using advanced spinning cone technology to gently remove first the aroma, and then the alcohol. The delicate aroma is collected and recombined with the wine to maintain its distinctive nose. The final blend retains weight and mouthfeel with a small amount of Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc grape juice and natural yeast proteins to build texture, without adding sugar. This results in a refreshing style of non-alcoholic wine with low calories.
