The Zero pinot noir is grown entirely in Germany’s most famous region for the grape, Baden. This part of southern Germany is perfectly suited for grape growing, with the most average sunshine and least rainfall in the whole country. Pinot noir has been grown here for centuries and Leitz is pleased to work with the co-op in the Kaiserstuhl region to source this authentic and distinctive wine. It is aged in cask and gently distilled to keep the varietal and regional character. Available in bottle and can. The first patent for alcohol removal under vacuum pressure was given in Germany in 1907 to a small property in the Rheingau, in fact, in Johannes Leitz’s hometown of Rüdesheim. The US was importing de-alcoholized wine from the same property during Prohibition. Since then, advances in technology have allowed for lower temperatures of distillation and the retention of even more of the original character and flavor of the wine. Combined with Johannes’ growing and sourcing of high-quality fruit, the very best non-alcoholic wines are still produced here after over 100 years. Ingredients: De-alcoholized Wine, Grape Must, Sucrose, Carbon Dioxide, Sulphites
