Appalina is a winery dedicated to offering non-alcoholic wines made from traditional wine grapes, using modern de-alcoholization techniques that retain the essence of the grape while removing the alcohol content. Their approach emphasizes preserving the aromatic profile and mouthfeel of the original wine.

For this Sauvignon Blanc, semi-sweet Hungarian grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness to retain their fruity and floral character. After fermentation, the alcohol is carefully removed through vacuum distillation, a method that allows the wine to maintain its fresh and vibrant notes.

The result is a light, food-friendly wine alternative that aligns with modern lifestyle preferences, offering a balanced, approachable taste that suits any occasion.

Grilled chicken salad – The citrusy brightness of the wine complements the light, herby flavors of the salad.

Goat cheese and crackers – The creamy tang of goat cheese pairs well with the wine’s zesty freshness.

Vegetable stir-fry – A touch of sweetness in the wine balances the savory-sweet notes of stir-fried veggies.

Lemon herb hummus with pita – Light, zesty flavors of the wine elevate the lemon and garlic in hummus.

Fish tacos – The wine’s acidity and fruity notes enhance the fresh flavors of grilled fish and lime.
