Feeling claustrophobic? Join the club. We’ve just about worked through our decluttering and deep-cleaning to-do list and can’t help but feel slightly frustrated (and a tad bored) since some of our fave activities (gym, catching up with friends) have been curtailed. But this is also why we’re currently loving the fact that Van Loveren wine now comes in guilt-free form and is safe to consume anytime, anywhere.
Van Loveren Almost Zero % Alcohol
Van Loveren has tapped into their traditional winemaking methods and modern de-alcoholisation techniques to create a genius,non-alcoholic drink with a distinctive wine character. The taste will satisfy any wine lover’s palate, you get to enjoy it guilt-free.
The Almost Zero % Alcohol range contains less than 0.4% alcohol and is 75% lower in kilojoules than wine. This means you can literally finish the bottle and — in terms of kJ — it’ll only count as having a single glass of wine.
It comes in handy when you need to take the edge off (because: kinda anxious RN) — yet it’s so low in alcohol, you can safely drink it at any time. Love.
These are the refreshing offerings in the range…
1/ Wonderful white
This really is ! It’s super-refreshing and resembles a Sauvignon Blanc, making it the perfect daytime drink. We found it to be soft and smooth with delicate apple, citrus and tropical fruit flavours. Basically ideal for every occasion. Enjoy as a healthy aperitif or with your fave salad, sushi… or any summer fare really.
