Altes Schlosschen Turm Zero Non-Alcoholic Wine 75 cl <0,5%

Turm-Zero is Altes Schlosschen's answer to the still white wine without the percentages - a wine that does not try to be anything other than itself, just without the alcohol.

Expert's Description

Altes Schlosschen Turm-Zero is an Alcohol-Free White Wine from Germany made from Kerner and Muscat with an alcohol content of under 0.5%. The wine is made by first fermenting the grapes into a regular white wine, after which the alcohol is gently removed to best preserve the grapes' natural aroma and character. The Kerner grape, a cross between Trollinger and Riesling developed in 1929, combined with the aromatic Muscat grape, together give a wine with clear fruitiness and a light, mineral undertone.
