Description
Eins Zwei Zero Riesling is the alcohol-free masterpiece of the prestigious German winery Weingut Josef Leitz, located in the iconic Rheingau region. This premium dealcoholized wine completely redefines the alcohol-free category, offering a sophisticated and elegant alternative for those who wish to enjoy the true essence of wine without the effects of alcohol.
Made exclusively from 100% Riesling grapes, meticulously selected from historic vineyards on the steep slopes of Rüdesheim, this white wine captures the purity and tension of Germany's renowned terroir. The winemaking process begins with traditional vinification in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, carefully designed to preserve maximum freshness and the grape's primary fruit aromas. Once the base wine has been produced, it undergoes an advanced dealcoholization process using low-temperature vacuum distillation (approximately 29°C).
This cutting-edge technology gently removes the alcohol while protecting the delicate molecular structure of Riesling, preserving its volatile aromatic compounds, vibrant acidity, and distinctive mineral character. The result is an exceptionally balanced, clean, and crisp beverage that faithfully expresses the varietal typicity of Germany's flagship grape.
