Dealcoholized Bordeaux red wine made from Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon – unfiltered, full-bodied, smoky.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJörg Geiger Edition Lamothe non-alcoholic\u003c\/strong\u003e is a still, non-alcoholic red wine accompaniment from the cidery in Schlat at the Swabian Alb: dealcoholized Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon from Bordeaux, refined with damson, cherry, blackcurrant, and blackberry juice, herbs, blossoms, and spices, under 0.5% vol, 750 ml. Not grape juice, not a red wine spritzer – a glass for hearty dishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEdition Lamothe by Jörg Geiger\u003c\/strong\u003e is a dealcoholized wine that the producer includes in its GRAD°WANDERUNG line. The principle: Alcohol is gently removed from a dry wine, after which the cidery refines it with fruit juices, herbs, blossoms, and spices. It is labeled as an \"aromatized non-alcoholic beverage with dealcoholized wine,\" with residual alcohol at approximately 0.4% vol. The wine comes from France, from Bordeaux: 80 percent Merlot, 15 percent Cabernet Sauvignon. And it is bottled unfiltered so that the tannins remain in the glass. That is the difference you feel with the first sip: structure, just like a red wine has.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTaste\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe nose shows smoky nuances with aromas of ripe black cherries, plums, and blackberries. The bouquet is dark and deep, more autumn than summer. If you let the glass sit for a while, the blackberry and plum aromas become more prominent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn the palate, it is full-bodied and dry, with spicy notes and soft tannins. With 0.9 grams of sugar per 100 milliliters, it remains clearly dry, and the acidity is 5.7 grams per liter. The dealcoholized wine makes up 90 percent of the bottle, with the juices of damson, cherry, blackcurrant, and blackberry making up the small remainder – along with herbs, blossoms, spices, and vegetable glycerin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eServing Suggestions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eJörg Geiger recommends it with grilled lamb, hearty roasts, aged hard cheese, and mushroom dishes. These are the dishes that would otherwise be served with a Bordeaux, and the tannins here keep pace. For a vegetarian option, it pairs well with a mushroom ragout with bread dumplings or a hearty lentil stew.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe serving temperature is 14 to 16 °C (57–61 °F); according to the producer, the glass of choice is a Burgundy glass with its wide bowl. Because it is unfiltered, it is worth letting the bottle stand upright for a few hours before opening and pouring slowly. It contains sulfites.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur Tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Place lamb chops with rosemary and garlic on the grill and finish by grating some aged mountain cheese over roasted mushrooms. Two dishes, one bottle – this shows how versatile this accompaniment is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOrigin\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Jörg Geiger cidery is located in Schlat on the edge of the Swabian Alb. Jörg Geiger is a trained chef and has been making non-alcoholic beverages from Swabian meadow fruit since 2003. Since 2023, he has been dealcoholizing wine in the company's own facility using vacuum distillation at low temperatures; the aromas are recovered and partially added back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe edition shares its name with Château Lamothe, a winery in the Côtes de Bourg appellation on the Gironde, which the producer features on its website and where regenerative agriculture is practiced. Whether the wine in this edition comes from there is not stated on the product page; it simply states Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon from Bordeaux. In Schlat, the process of dealcoholization, refining with juices, herbs, and spices, and bottling without filtration follows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFor whom\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the bottle for people who are used to a strong red with their roast and currently want to stay alcohol-free. It is perfect for Sunday dinner with lamb, a cheese board after the meal, and a barbecue evening in the autumn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you prefer something more delicate, try the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/37-grad-pinot-noir-alkoholfrei\"\u003e37° Pinot Noir\u003c\/a\u003e with cherry and raspberry.
