Giesen 0% Merlot
A non-alcoholic New Zealand Merlot with blackberry and plum, subtle toasted oak and fine tannins.
Giesen 0% Merlot is a lighter red wine from New Zealand's Hawke's Bay. After alcohol removal, recovered aromas and a small amount of grape juice concentrate are blended into the wine for balance and texture.
Tasting notes
Blackberry and wild herb aromas lead into red berries and ripe plum. Subtle toasted oak and fine, powdery tannins give the fruit a gentle structure.
Why it stands out
Grape juice concentrate rounds out the blend after alcohol removal. Pair this lighter red with herb-crumbed veal schnitzel.
