Wine Proxy

Proxy wines are not
Dealcoholized wines – and they don't even 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

ALTER – GERANIUM combines the bright tension of unripe grapes with pear and apple. Distillates of lemon geranium, rosemary, and French oak give this pétillant its unmistakable contours: citrus zest, Mediterranean herbs, a hint of lychee, and a fine, nutty warmth in the finish. The perlage keeps everything in motion, while the tannins remain subtle.

ALTER - Geranium BEHIND THE SCENE'S

PRODUCTION

Geranium is created from individually distilled botanicals: lemon geranium, rosemary, and French oak. These meet the bright fruit notes of unripe grapes, pear, and apple; fine perlage gives the cuvée tension and verve.

At its heart is the lemon geranium – citrusy, green, clear. Rosemary adds a Mediterranean spice, and the oak provides a warm, calm framework. The result is a precise composition with freshness, herbs, and a delicate, lingering structure.

OCCASION & MOMENT

MORE ABOUT ALTER

Alter Cuvée grows its botanicals itself – in open fields – and distills them specifically for each cuvée instead of fermenting them. Carefully selected unripe grapes, fruits, and herbs thus create complex layered aromas – primary, secondary, tertiary – that bring structure, tannin, and freshness to the glass completely without alcohol (0.0%).
