Zero Red Alcohol Free De Stefani

What kind of wine is it?

Zero Red Alcohol Free by De Stefani is a dealcoholized red wine made from Merlot and Refosco grapes grown in Veneto, in the Piave Valley. It shows a soft and harmonious style, designed to offer easy and versatile drinkability. The process combines pressing, cooling of the must, and fermentation at a controlled temperature, followed by the removal of alcohol under vacuum with controlled heating, thus preserving a profile centered on ripe red fruit, subtle spice, and a balanced finish.

Where does it come from?

The grapes are sourced from the Piave Valley in Veneto, an area linked to the river’s course and a strong agricultural tradition. The vineyards are set on clay-rich soils, a feature that supports consistent viticulture and a ripening process that yields round, fruity expressions. In this context, Merlot and Refosco contribute to an intense color and a smooth, harmonious texture, with a straightforward and immediate style.

How is it made?

After harvest, the grapes are pressed and the must is cooled down to 0°C to precisely control the initial stages. This is followed by a single fermentation at 15°C, to maintain a clean aromatic profile focused on the fruit. The dealcoholization is carried out by controlled heating up to 30°C under vacuum, a technique that preserves the natural, original aromas of the wine and allows for a non-alcoholic red with a balanced and direct profile.

Tasting notes
