Good non-alcoholic wine in Pomelo!

Did you know that in our offer you will also find non-alcoholic wine?

Due to the fact that not drinking alcohol is becoming more and more popular, we decided to expand our offer with a grape drink. It is an excellent alternative to traditional wine, it provides a similar taste and aroma, but a significant difference is in the content or lack of alcohol content.

Non-alcoholic wine cools and quenches thirst on hot days. It is a great addition to dishes and dishes during the day, when we cannot afford to taste alcohols. A great alternative for drivers, people with health problems as well as people who for other reasons do not want or cannot consume alcohol. In addition, non-alcoholic wine also contains health benefits such as: low calorie content, the presence of oxidants and polyphenols derived from grapes. It must be remembered that it is still wine that has been prepared in the same way as the traditional "Drink of the Gods" and therefore contains most of the same qualities.

The alcohol-free wine production process consists of the following steps:

1️⃣ grape harvest. Grape varieties depending on the region, in most cases are used the same as for the production of traditional wines, namely:

• Red wines - they are most often produced from the following grape varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Noir, Shiraz.

• White wines - most often made of Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay grapes.

2️⃣ ️ Pressing - production of juice from harvested grapes.

3️⃣ Fermentation - fermentation of the juice produced. Here, fermentation is controlled to stop the process when the alcohol content is less than 0.5% by volume.

4️⃣ Removal of alcohol - after the end of fermentation, it is necessary to remove the alcohol from wine. One of the known and used methods is evaporation under the influence of heating. Another equally common method is filtration, which can help remove alcohol particles from the wine.

5️⃣ Reconstruction of taste and aroma - after removing the alcohol, the wine may lose some of the original taste and aroma values. There are many ways to restore these values, e.g. by adding grape concentrates, natural flavors or plant extracts.

6️⃣ Bottling - spilling non-alcoholic wine into bottles.
