Can you tell me a bit about the process?

The grapes are fermented and aged according to the traditional winemaking method. During this traditional vinification, the grapes are bruised very carefully and the skins begin to release their colouring to the juice. Once our VINADA winemaker is satisfied with the shade, the grapes are gently pressed and the skins and juice separated. Fermentation then continues. The wine is de-alcoholised just before bottling. Dealcoholisation takes place by means of vacuum extraction: The fully fermented base wine is dealcoholized under vacuum at a low temperature. The temperature is crucial for the taste. The lower the temperature during dealcoholisation, the more aromas and thus taste are preserved. This process takes place at the perfect temperature and is a well-kept VINADA secret. The volatile aromas of the wine are extracted simultaneously with the alcohol. The aromas are returned directly to the de-alcoholised wine. The wine is then purified, filtered and stabilized.

How long does the vinification take for VINADA wines?

The initial vinification takes around 6 weeks, depending on different (nature) aspects such as temperatures and yeast. After vinification the wines reach the perfect mixture of balanced flavour in order to make the best non-alcoholic wines.
