Understanding Non-Alcoholic Wine

Non-alcoholic wine is made just like regular wine, but the alcohol is removed after fermentation. This keeps the flavors and smells of wine while taking out the alcohol. Most non-alcoholic wines have less than 0.5% alcohol, making them great for those avoiding alcohol. The alcohol is removed using methods like vacuum distillation or reverse osmosis, which help keep the wine's original taste.

Storing Your Non-Alcoholic Wines

Even though non-alcoholic wines don't need aging, good storage keeps them fresh:

Cool Environment

Store in a cool, dark place

Horizontal Position

Store bottles on their side

Stable Temperature

Avoid temperature changes

  • Keep bottles in a cool, dark place
  • Store bottles on their side to keep the cork moist
  • Avoid places with big temperature changes
  • Best storage temperature is between 45°F to 65°F (7°C to 18°C)
  • Keep humidity around 70% to prevent cork drying

Serving and Enjoying Non-Alcoholic Wines

To get the most out of your non-alcoholic wines:

  • Use proper wine glasses to enhance smells and tastes
  • Serve white and rosé wines cold at 45°F to 50°F (7°C to 10°C)
  • Let red wines warm up to about 55°F to 65°F (13°C to 18°C) before drinking
  • Try pouring reds into a decanter to open up their flavors
  • Let wines breathe for 15-30 minutes before serving
  • Try using wine aerators for quick air mixing
