Wine Proxy

Proxy wines are not dealcoholized wines – and don't intend to be wines.
They are independent compositions, perhaps inspired by wine, but reimagined. Composition instead of withdrawal.

Blends of tea infusions, juices, fruit extracts, herbs, spices, and fermented elements form the basis. The result: a beverage reminiscent of wine in structure, depth, and aroma – usually entirely without grapes. Acidity, texture, tannins, and length are key. The best proxy wines can do what great wines can: complement food, unlock aromas, stimulate – and tell their own unique story.

A category for the curious. And for everyone who chooses alcohol-free – and expects character, complexity and enjoyment.

OUR PERSPECTIVE

I'm willing to go out on a limb and say that the Arensbak Red is perhaps the closest in aroma and structure to the (natural) wine we carry. It's a rather light wine that should ideally be enjoyed slightly chilled (around 8°C!) to allow its full spectrum of aromas and structure to unfold. The combination of earthy notes from the black Shu Pu'er tea from China's Yunnan tea region, various berries (aronia, etc.), and maceration of oak, juniper, and mushrooms, among other things, creates profoundly complex structures. This is a sommelier's recommendation.
