Terroir Riesling Kalkstein: An Alcohol-Free Option That’s Also Vegan-Friendly!

As the winter season unfolds and festive gatherings draw near, Terroir Riesling Kalkstein, a premium vegan-friendly, alcohol-free wine, is now available exclusively at Dunnes Stores!

This 100% Riesling, produced in the renowned Pfalz region of Germany, where limestone-rich soils promote elegant wines, offers a delightful high-quality alcohol-free option. Priced at just €4.20 on promotion until the end of the year (normal RSP €5.25), this wine boasts 44g/l residual sugar and <0.05% ABV, featuring refreshing flavours of red apples, pear, and fresh herbs—perfect for cosy winter dishes.

 

Riesling is particularly well-suited for alcohol-free production, with its natural fruit-forward characteristics evolving to highlight more pronounced mineral and herbal notes. The Pfalz, one of Germany’s sunniest and driest wine regions, provides optimal conditions for Riesling production. The unique Kalkstein (limestone) soils encourage deep vine roots, allowing the grapes to develop fine, layered flavours that shine through in this alcohol-free variety. Utilising a gentle vacuum extraction process at temperatures below 30°C, the wine is carefully de-alcoholised to retain its natural flavours and aromas, resulting in a more authentic taste experience.

In addition, wine enthusiasts can also enjoy the Weinhaus Reh Kendermann Sauvignon Blanc Kalkstein, a premium vegan-friendly, ABV 12.5% Sauvignon Blanc that has recently earned an impressive 92 points from Decanter, now available on promotion in Dunnes Stores for only €9.00. This vibrant wine, also grown in the limestone-rich soils of the Pfalz region, features festive, bright flavours that are perfect for the holiday season. Also on offer is the 2024 Berlin Wine Trophy Gold Medal award-winning Weinhaus Reh Kendermann Riesling Schiefer Steillage, ABV 11% available in Dunnes Stores currently on promotion for just €8.50, a beautifully crafted Riesling from the steep slate slopes of Germany, providing a unique mineral profile with elegant fruit notes.

 

Explore the rich flavours of the season with these exceptional vegan wines, perfect for winter gatherings, available now in Dunnes Stores nationwide!
