Crowned Best Vegan Drink 2023 at the World Alcohol-free Awards, Vinada’s Crispy Chardonnay is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes from the French wine-growing region of Languedoc.

Dry, medium-bodied and full of attitude, expect notes of apple and melon on the nose with a touch of citrus set to dance over the palate. This non-alcoholic Chardonnay boasts a very impressive amount of flavour while remaining a vegan, gluten-free and low-cal drinking alternative.

Try this Grapefruit Sparkle mocktail recipe to add a little class to your next soiree without the headache the next day!

Vinada’s Tinteling Tempranillo Rosé stems from the popular Spanish wine-growing region of La Manca and was awarded a Gold Medal at the Gilbert & Gallard International Wine Challenge 2023. A vivacious ruby red colour, with fine bubbles and harmonious acidity, it is the notes of berry and vanilla that make this drop as refreshing as it can be.

This is a perfect match for steak, salad and rich desserts, accompanied by a Juicy Rosé mocktail in a glass rimmed with a cinnamon-sugar mix.

The third varietal – Amazing Airén Gold – exhibits a lively yellow colour and is more subdued in aroma and taste, but with every sip there is an unexpected touch of spice. This wine was awarded Bronze in the World Alcohol-free Awards this year and has a crispy and mousse-like mouth finish, along with aromas of lemon, bruised apple and grape.
