Record
IWSC has a Van Loveren Almost Zero Cabernet at 0.3% alcohol, all Cabernet Sauvignon, in a 750 ml bottle from South Africa. Van Loveren’s own range page puts Almost Zero at 0.3% and says the wines are made by ordinary winemaking plus de-alcoholization. It does not name the machine.
That page’s current list is Sauvignon Blanc, Moscato Rosé, and Merlot. This Cabernet is not on it. The competition note is not a tasting. The bottle has not been scored.

Production Dealcoholized
Method Undeclared
IWSC lists Van Loveren Family Vineyards Almost Zero Cabernet Sauvignon NV from South Africa, 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, 750 ml glass, screwcap, alcohol 0.3%. The Van Loveren Almost Zero page says the line is about 0.3% alcohol and is made by traditional winemaking plus de-alcoholization. The wines named on that page are Sauvignon Blanc, Moscato Rosé, and Merlot. Cabernet is not among them. The IWSC tasting note is not used. The front label reads Van Loveren, Alcohol Free, Almost Zero, Red Wine, Cabernet Sauvignon. Alcohol free is not treated as a residual. The 0.3% figure stays the IWSC result. The $14.99 figure is the Chantilly shelf. Total Wine lists Almost Zero Non-Alcoholic Cabernet Sauvignon. The opened brand list did not print that price.
