100% Estate Grapes
The Coste family has been working on their "Zero" project for two years, conducting extensive benchmarking and tasting numerous 0% wines to understand the market. To maintain the highest quality, they use only estate-grown grapes, giving them full control over the production process. The winemaking process mirrors that of their traditional wines, ensuring a familiar and authentic taste profile. The wine is then sent to BevZero, an American company operating in Spain, where it undergoes dealcoholization. BevZero, known for its innovative approach to alcohol-free products, utilizes vacuum distillation—a minimally intrusive method. The still Zero Rosé is bottled at Domaine Montrose, while the Montrose Zero Sparkling is sent to a specialized facility near Marseille, where CO₂ is added via the Charmat method before bottling.

Less Sugar
Domaine Montrose uses significantly less sugar than the industry average. Because alcohol contributes to a wine's mouthfeel, many alcohol-free wines add 40-60 g/L of sugar to compensate. In contrast, Domaine Montrose includes only 20 g/L, resulting in a fresh and balanced palate that tastes more like traditional wine and less like fruit juice.

0.0% ABV
While some alcohol-free wines may contain up to 0.5% ABV, Domaine Montrose wines are completely alcohol-free (0.0% ABV), making them suitable for anyone seeking a truly non-alcoholic option.
