Why did they start making non alcoholic wine?

McGuigan identified a growing demand for high-quality, non-alcoholic wines as more consumers embraced mindful drinking. The winery sought to provide an option that would allow wine lovers to enjoy the full flavor and experience of wine without alcohol. Their non-alcoholic range is crafted to meet the needs of a health-conscious audience while preserving the quality McGuigan is known for. The decision to produce non-alcoholic wines reflects McGuigan’s commitment to innovation and inclusivity, offering a product that aligns with contemporary preferences. McGuigan’s non-alcoholic wines maintain the same attention to detail and craftsmanship as their traditional wines, ensuring that each glass offers a fulfilling experience.

How do they produce their non alcoholic wine?

McGuigan utilizes spinning cone technology to remove alcohol from their wines. This process involves separating the wine’s aromatic compounds and then removing the alcohol at low temperatures, which helps preserve the wine’s natural flavors and structure. The result is a non-alcoholic wine that delivers a full-bodied taste profile.
