GRAPE SELECTION
A rosé is judged on two things: fruit and freshness. We find both in Gascony, with two complementary grapes. Cabernet Sauvignon brings red fruit and the slight bitterness that marks a true rosé; Colombard adds acidity and aromatic backbone. The harvest date decides the rest: picked at perfect ripeness, they keep the fine acidity that carries the fruit and roundness, and retain all their character once the alcohol is removed. Our partner winegrowers set aside their most expressive plots for us, those whose grapes give the generous profile and refreshing finish you find in the glass.
the art of blending
The blend is where a wine without alcohol finds its true identity. Our oenologists build each cuvée with the final balance in mind: they fine-tune acidity, tannic structure and aromatic expression so that nothing is missing once the alcohol is removed. Fermentation usually takes place in tanks, for freshness, and sometimes partly in oak for added depth.
Combining grape varieties, adjusting proportions, revealing complexity: this exacting approach, praised by leading sommeliers and rewarded at international competitions, is what sets a true wine without alcohol apart from a simple dealcoholised juice.
GENTLE DEALCOHOLISATION
Dealcoholisation is the most delicate step in our craft. Moderato uses low-temperature vacuum distillation, between 30 and 35 °C: under vacuum, alcohol evaporates before water and aroma compounds, so the alcohol can be extracted while preserving the structure, freshness and bouquet of the original wine.
This gentle method protects the most fragile aromas that heat would destroy. Each cuvée is then carefully fine-tuned (texture, balance, length) to offer a wine without alcohol that stays true to the winegrower's work, with no compromise on pleasure.

FAQ
We look for the best wines with specific characteristics (balance, aromas, etc.) so that they keep the best of themselves during alcohol reduction. Our alcohol-free wines are all produced from Southwestern grape varieties, appreciated throughout the world for their strong typicity, aromatic freshness and fruity/floral notes. Colombard, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Gros Manseng… the South-West vineyards offer a fantastic range of terroirs and wines!
Our wines are first made as true vintages, with particular attention paid to the selection of grape varieties and blends. The alcohol is then removed using a gentle dealcoholization process by vacuum distillation at low temperatures. This technique allows the alcohol to be extracted while preserving the aromatic structure and complexity of the wine. The result: balanced, expressive vintages faithful to the work of the winegrowers.
With moderato, we want to expand the wine family: we take inspiration from classic wine to create new unique styles. We clearly find the essential markers of wine - tannins for the reds, slight bitterness for the rosés, acidic freshness for whites — but without alcohol. Our objective is to preserve this wine DNA, by highlighting the fruit, the freshness and this characteristic little length in the mouth, while offering a new experience free of alcohol.
