Ara Zero Alcohol Free Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough NZ 750mL

Ara Zero Alcohol Free Sauvignon Blanc

Ara wines are crafted on the edge of the earth; the essence of Pure Marlborough.

A crisp, dry, no-alcohol Sauvignon Blanc alternative, Ara Zero is crafted using full-strength wine. We distill off the alcohol, and make sure that what’s left behind is all classic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc flavour.

Tasting Note
This refreshing alcohol-free wine shows classic Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc notes of tropical fruit and grapefruit. Layers of passionfruit and pineapple fill the palate, creating a delicious balance between fruit sweetness, juicy texture and a crisp, dry finish. Enjoy for its lighter style and low calories.

Harvest
Marlborough’s dry 2020 vintage created a bounty of intense flavour and quality for our Wairau Valley vineyards. Harvest was characterised by quality fruit with generous aromatics, concentrated flavour, texture and lovely natural acidity. Grapes for this wine were carefully hand selected for picking in parcels at the perfect ripeness.

Winemaking
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.

Food Match
Serve chilled. Enjoy with good company over a generous meal of fish tacos.
