Between fruity cider and intense orange wine.
A wild complexity from Norwegian forests.

Wine Proxy

Proxy wines are not dealcoholized wines – and don't want to be seen as wine. They are independent compositions: inspired by wine, but reimagined. Creation instead of withdrawal.

Their complexity arises from fermentation or distillation – sometimes through kombucha or lacto-fermentation, sometimes based on water kefir or other controlled microbial processes. Added to this are tea infusions, juices, fruit extracts, herbs, or spices, which combine like building blocks to create multi-layered structures. The result: a beverage that, in structure, depth, and aroma, is reminiscent of wine – often entirely without grapes.

The focus is on acidity, texture, tannins, and length, supported by a fine balance and controlled sweetness. The best proxy wines can do what great wines can: accompany food, unlock aromas, stimulate – and tell their own story.
A category for the curious.

OUR PERSPECTIVE

That we in the north play with acidity is a natural fit and plays a central role in AMBIJUS. Here, the best apples from Hardanger are used, the same ones often used to make cider. They are lacto-fermented, then spruce needles, elderflowers, and juniper berries are added. You feel catapulted somewhere between rugged landscapes, an apple orchard, and a forest. An incredibly vibrant, invigorating drink.
