Tasting Notes

Serve well chilled, pouring immediately.

Nose: On the nose, very perfumy and fruity with equal parts green apple, lemon rind, peach, elderflower, juniper and cinnamon leaping out of the light mousse of bubbles.

Palate: On the palate, more lemon, lime and nectarine, more spice and a great mid-palate weight and stoney, minerally and salty finish.

Finish: The texture, length, and dryness are exceptional, creating the most wine-like beverage you will taste in the non-alcoholic world.

Pairing: Pair this wine with shucked oysters, brie cheese or fried chicken for a thoroughly enjoyable evening.  

Beverage-making Notes

Our goal was to recreate the experience of a Niagara Sparkling Riesling, using local, craft, non-alcoholic ingredients. We picked Riesling from Niagara very early and pressed it to make our Verjus (literally translated as “Green Juice”). We then made a small batch infusion with green tea, fruits and botanicals. These were mixed together, and bottled with a light, sparkly fizz.

Ingredients:

50% Riesling Verjus (Riesling Juice picked at 14 Brix) 50% Infusion containing green tea, elderflower, juniper, cinnamon and peach Alcohol 0.0% - Never Fermented! 39 Calories per glass (125mL)- Low Sugar!
