QUICK QUOTES:
“If we wanted to introduce a new variety, we can’t just make a bit in a barrel. We need thousands of bottles just to see if it works. So it’s not a very easy category to […] play around with.”
SHOW SUMMARY
Alcohol Change UK describes Eisberg Wine as the ‘Grandaddy of alcohol-free wine”. That’s quite a moniker to live up to. In this week’s conversation, I speak to UK Manager Dan Harwood about the brand that’s been ubiquitous in the UK since the mid-eighties but is still iterating every day to improve the liquid in the bottle.
We talk red wine appreciation, vacuum distillation and new product development as I nose into what’s next for Germany’s Eisberg Wines here in the UK.
