This is a very modern, alcohol free Riesling produced from grapes of young vines, with a lot of flavour. The taste is clean and fresh with notes of lime and citrus; there are subtle hints of rhubarb and red apples on an underlying mineral base. The finish is dry and relatively long. It’s Riesling and it’s definitely a nice treat for hot days and good food. A vacuum distillation system was used to create this alcohol free wine by allowing the wine alcohol to boil at 28ºC, preserving “wine-like” aromas and characteristics. As we all know, like fat, alcohol is a transporter of flavour, and without it, there needs to be something else to carry those flavours. Residual sugar does the work for this Riesling, though the sugar is nearly eaten up by acidity. It retains its wine-like aromas however of orange citrus, rhubarb and tarragon.
