Luminara Non-Alcoholic Napa Red Blend 2018

Luminara
$23.99

Illuminating the idea of what fine wine can be, Luminara is the first-ever exquisitely crafted, alcohol-removed wine made from fruit grown in the prized Napa Valley appellation. By selecting grapes of exceptional quality, in tandem with the most advanced proprietary de-alcoholization technology in the world, Luminara delivers a true fine wine experience—without the alcohol. 

Harvest Notes

The 2018 growing season was yet another exceptional one for Napa Valley. September harvest weather was excellent, providing a typical vineyard yield. October rains were a welcome occurrence, helping to alleviate persistent drought conditions.

Winemaking Notes
Our technologically superior and delicate alcohol-removal process allows us to retain the vibrant fruit aromas and flavors that define this Red Blend.  Using a revolutionary spinning cone column, we gently extract and safeguard the wine’s delicate aromas and flavors. The alcohol is then removed and the wine essences are re-introduced to the base juice. The finished wine is aged in both French and American oak to impart additional complexity and texture.

Palate
Our rich alcohol-removed Red Blend reflects the heart and soul of Napa Valley terroir, showcasing bold black cherry aromas over subtle notes of spice and smoke. Luxe cherry on the palate culminates in a long, lingering finish, making this Red Blend a luminous offering for any occasion.

Varietal: 70% Pinot Noir;  30% Zinfandel

Nice & mellow

This red blend is a great substitute for me during the work week when I want a glass of red wine. It's mellow and nicely balanced.

Not too bad

At this price point, I wouldn't repurchase in favor of some other beverages (i.e. coffee), but it was nice. Notes of cherry are fairly dominant. Slight astringency and drying.
