Botanically Inused, Non-alc wine that is vegan, gluten free and contains no added sugar! Sounds to good to be true, right? Wrong.

I have seen the rise of the non alcohol wines and I decided to see what all the fuss was about. I decided on Altina as they are an Australian business founded by a couple – Alan and Christina who have a passion for Australia and keeping production in Australia using local suppliers. Interestingly Christina has a Bachelor of Chemical Biotechnology and a Ph.D in Plant Biology which she uses to create the unique taste profile of Altina. Unlike other non-alcoholic wines that typically combine de-alcoholised wine and concentrated grape juice, Christina never adds sugar to her formulations. Instead, she uses natural ingredients and native Australian botanicals. Their alcohol-free ingredients are not only ethically sourced but are chosen for their health-giving qualities, such as: Riberry, Rosella, Forestberry, Pepperberry, Kakadu Plum and Finger Lime. Come and check them out, they are beautiful and instore now!
