Australia’s ‘leading’ alcohol-removed wine brand Edenvale has reigned supreme at this year’s World Alcohol-Free Awards held on 3-4 March 2024 in London, taking home nine medals, including three gold, three silver, one bronze and two commended, cementing its place as a leader in the category.
The World Alcohol-Free Awards is an international competition recognising the best alcohol-free beverages, including wines, spirits, beers, and mixers. Judged by experts, it promotes quality and innovation in the alcohol-free market, offering producers a platform to showcase their products.
Using traditional winemaking techniques and a gentle alcohol removal process, Edenvale offers a range of wines, including sparkling, red, white, and rosé, each providing a sophisticated, non-alcoholic alternative.
Edenvale’s Premium Reserve Sparkling Shiraz stole the show, winning gold for the second year running and securing its place amongst an elite group of only four beverages to attain such a high level of consistency – a true testament to the exceptional standards maintained by Edenvale, amidst a notable rise in competition.
To top it off, Edenvale’s Premium Reserve Sparkling Shiraz proudly secured the World Alcohol-Free Awards’ prestigious Best Wine 2024 trophy, awarded after a meticulous re-tasting of gold medal recipients in May.
With enticing blackberry and currant aromas, complemented by oak and smoky spice, the Premium Reserve Sparkling Shiraz has quickly become a crowd favourite, offering a rich palate experience with intertwining dark fruit flavours and chocolate notes.
Adding to its run of success, Edenvale’s Cabernet Sauvignon and Expedition Series: Verdejo Sauvignon Blanc each took home a gold medal, resulting in three top wins for the brand.
Edenvale founder Michael Bright says: “These awards are a true reflection of our team’s hard work, passion and dedication to the alcohol-removed category. We continuously strive to innovate and elevate the standards in this space, and we are honoured to be recognised for our efforts.”
Edenvale’s Premium Reserve Sparkling Shiraz was also recently awarded a gold medal in the International Wine & Spirit Competition 2024 (IWSC), with an impressive score of 98 – the highest score for all low/no wine entries.
