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.

Gnista - Red Italian Style BEHIND THE SCENE'S

PRODUCTION

Not a dealcoholized wine, but rather a "bottom-up" composition: fruit juices, such as grape juice, oak elements, tannin carriers, and spice macerates are built up in layers to create structure, grip, and length. The cuvée is adjusted for tension, tannin, and fruit spice – with a touch of residual sugar for balance.
