At the beginning of the 20th century, Dr. Carl Jung a wine merchant and son of a winemaking family from the Rheingau (Germany), busied himself with the question: can wine be enjoyed without alcohol? At the time customers were swearing off wine due to health issues. But Carl Jung had a thought: wine needs taste, not alcohol.
Inspired by expeditions to the Himalayas, which used rapidly boiling water at extreme altitudes, he succeeded in 1907 with a ground-breaking invention – a vacuum extraction process where alcohol is gently withdrawn from the wine at less than 30 degrees. With aroma recovery, the natural wine aromas are captured and bouquet and taste are preserved. It was awarded a patent for its process and Carl Jung became the inventor of the alcohol-free wine.
The passion and years of research on his invention led to further patents that refined the quality and taste of Carl Jung non-alcoholic wines.
This elegant alcohol-free Cabernet Sauvignon is dark red in colour, with aromas of cassis and green peppers, followed by a long finish.
Cabernet Sauvignon is the king of red wines. Dark grape skins lead to more colour, aromas and tannins in red wines, these characteristics are very pronounced in this Carl Jung Cabernet Sauvignon.
Carl Jung are the inventors of alcohol-free wines and have been making them for over 100 years.

This is our only imported wine, and not without reason. Carl Jung are the inventors of alcohol-free wines and have been making them for over 100 years.
De-alcoholised wines take getting used to, but within the category this is arguably best-in-class.
