Rosé all day…

No problem with this non-alcoholic product from Kolonne Null in Berlin. The packaging alone makes you want to try the product. The design is appealing, clear and modern. With an alcohol content of less than 0.5%, the Rosé can be enjoyed all day long. After opening, not much happens on the nose, but I didn't expect that with this light cuvee. Here, the alcohol is missing as a solvent. But only here. The colour is a delicate salmon pink. In the glass, the well-chilled wine mousses lightly and appealingly. The fine "bitzel" supports the pleasant freshness. On the palate, there are nuances of apricots, raspberries and subtle floral notes. I like the mineral orientation and the dry finish. On the whole, the wine has a lively suppleness and reflects a harmonious character. How could it be otherwise, this wine is also perfect for the beginning of the asparagus season!

Here is some information about the producers. The Kolonne Null website states:

"A research and development team with its own laboratory and an uncompromising demand for quality in the purchase of the basic wines - these are the cornerstones on which the success of Kolonne Null is based. In collaboration with selected vintners - mostly from VDP wineries - the Kolonne Null team creates wines that are particularly suitable for dealcoholisation. After these have been dealcoholised in the laboratory on a test basis, the best results are then produced on a larger scale. The result is vintage wines and sparkling wines that meet the highest standards.

The column creates its non-alcoholic wines in co-production with award-winning family wineries. Close cooperation with our winegrowers, uncompromising demands on the grape material and targeted vinification of the wines are the maxims of Kolonne. Our collection includes wines from the Nahe, Mosel, Weinviertel and the heart of Provence. Kolonne Null does not set itself any (geographical) limits, only the quality and the close cooperation with the winegrowers are decisive for us."
