Product Overview

The De Bortoli Gewurztraminer Riesling, "The Very Cautious One," is an alcohol-free white wine from Australian winemaker De Bortoli. It offers the aromatic complexity of traditional wine for consumers seeking a sophisticated non-alcoholic alternative. This premium selection is available from UK retailers like ocado.

Grape Varietals & Blend

A classic blend of two aromatic grape varietals:

• Gewurztraminer: Contributes exotic notes of lychee, rose petal, and ginger spice.

• Riesling: Provides crisp acidity with notes of lime, citrus blossom, and green apple.

This blend creates a balanced, fragrant, and refreshing profile.

Tasting Profile

• Appearance: Pale straw with gold hues.

• Aroma (Nose): Fragrant lychee and rose petals, with notes of zesty lime and musk.

• Palate (Taste): Bright and clean with refreshing acidity. Flavours of green apple and citrus lead to tropical fruit and floral notes. A slight sweetness balances the acidity for a smooth mouthfeel.

• Finish: Crisp and dry with lingering citrus and floral notes.

Production & Alcohol Content

The wine is fermented to full-strength before the alcohol is gently removed using advanced spinning cone technology. This low-temperature vacuum distillation preserves the wine's delicate aromas.

• Alcohol by Volume (ABV): Less than 0.5%, classified as 'alcohol-free' in the UK.
