Edenvale names a GoLo heat-pump that separates alcohol, dealcoholized liquid, and essence, then returns the essence.

Open dispute

Edenvale names a GoLo heat-pump and does not name a spinning cone. Laithwaites says the wine goes through a custom spinning cone column. We follow Edenvale.

Cross-SKU vacuum claim walked back. Method stays Undeclared.

Open dispute

A first-person Leitz note for this Zero Point Five Pinot Noir, carried by Alternative Zero, says the alcohol was removed on a spinning cone column at about 30°C, with the separated aromas added back. Wines Direct’s English copy of that note says about 35°C. Mondovino also says spinning cone, at 29°C. The live Eins-Zwei-Zero page says vacuum distillation at about 29°C for every ZERO product and does not name this cuvée. Flaschenpost says a vacuum evaporator at a maximum of 27°C. Bishop’s Cellar says vacuum distillation at about 30°C. SAQ says vacuum distillation at about -30°C. No machine is published.

The front label says alcohol free and does not print a figure. Alcfree.ch prints <0.5% vol. The winery shop (2026-11-07) lists Alcohol content 0.5% vol. SAQ titles the bottle <0.5% and lists degree of alcohol as 0.5%. Alternative Zero, Berlin Bottle, Wines Direct, Juul’s, and Mondovino print 0.5% vol. Bishop’s Cellar prints 0% and, in the product text, 0.0% vol. The Eins-Zwei-Zero FAQ, below 0.1% vol with a bottling tolerance up to 0.38% vol, does not name Zero Point Five or Pinot Noir and is not used. We print <0.5%.

Equipment and applicability to SITE are not established.

Open dispute

The Noble House distributor sheet says the wine is gently heated to a maximum of 27°C so the alcohol evaporates. It does not identify the equipment or confirm the SITE private-label relationship. The previous suggestion of vacuum distillation has been removed; no machine or pressure regime is inferred from temperature.

The producer says the alcohol is removed by spinning cone, and that the bubbles are direct carbonation (force carbonation), with no secondary fermentation. The wholesale spec sheet, file-dated 28 August 2026, says the wine is bottled by the Charmat method and does not name a removal machine.

Thomson & Scott's own product page describes de-alcoholisation by vacuum distillation with aroma recovery, then light carbonation. Some trade listings additionally mention spinning-cone technology before or alongside vacuum distillation. We print both and do not collapse them into one proprietary story.

Producer technical data list 0.0% vol. Several US retailers describe the wine as under 0.5% ABV, which matches American non-alcoholic labeling rather than a lab contradiction we can resolve from here.

Open dispute

The producer page, the US label, and the importer shop name a de-alcoholised wine and no machine. The brand article does not choose among the three methods it defines. The importer blog is the only page that names reverse osmosis, and that paragraph also describes evaporation. The named technique stays undeclared.

Producer page says alcohol free / de-alcoholised and does not print a residual. IWSC prints 0.5%. One shop prints 0.0%; Vivino lists 0.01%. Kings Wine and Spirits lists less than 0.5% for the exact 750 ml SKU. The editor-supplied bottle label now confirms less than 0.5%, settling eligibility but not the exact residual. No source shows the residual above 0.5%.
