General FAQs

❓ What is Halal?

Halal is an Arabic term meaning permissible or lawful under Islamic law. When it comes to food and beverages, Halal-certified products must:

  • Come from acceptable sources

  • Be free from intoxicants and harmful substances

  • Be prepared with proper oversight and in accordance with Islamic guidelines

All our wines meet these criteria and are either Halal Certified or strictly adhere to 0.0% alcohol standards.

 

❓ What Are Halal Non-Alcoholic (0.0%) Wines? Are All Your Wines Halal?

Halal wines are beverages that undergo traditional winemaking — including fermentation and aging — but are then fully dealcoholized to 0.0% ABV.

Not all non-alcoholic wines are Halal. Many contain up to 0.5% alcohol. We only carry wines that are 0.0% ABV, and most are certified Halal by internationally recognized authorities. We regularly audit these products to ensure compliance with Islamic standards.

 

❓ What Is the Process of Making Non-Alcoholic Wine?

Our wines begin just like traditional wine:

  1. Premium grapes are harvested, crushed, and fermented.

  2. The wine is aged, depending on the style and region.

  3. After aging, alcohol is removed using one of three advanced techniques:

    • Reverse Osmosis

    • Vacuum Distillation

    • Spinning Column

Throughout this process, rigorous testing ensures the final product is 0.0% ABV. Legal authorities and Islamic certification bodies oversee compliance. Once dealcoholized, the wines are bottled and distributed worldwide.

❓ How Is This Different From Grape Juice?

In short: everything.

Feature Grape Juice Non-Alcoholic Wine
Made From Concentrate Whole grapes
Process Pasteurized only Fermented, aged, filtered
Additives Often has sugar/preservatives No added sugar/heavy preservatives
Flavor One-dimensional Complex & layered
Calories 120+ per serving 12+ per serving

 

Our wines come from prestigious wineries in Spain, France, and Italy — the difference is not just in the process, but in the taste and health benefits.

 

❓ How Do You Preserve the Wines?

Unopened bottles should be stored in a cool, dry place below 70°F. Once opened:

  • Keep refrigerated and tightly sealed

  • Best consumed within 3–5 days

  • Shelf life (unopened): Up to 3 years

❓ How Do I Drink Non-Alcoholic Wine?

We suggest using the 5 S's of Wine Tasting for the full experience:

  1. Sight – Hold the glass up to the light and observe the color.

  2. Swirl – Gently swirl to aerate (skip this step for sparkling wine).

  3. Smell – Inhale deeply to detect aromas.

  4. Sip – Roll the wine around your mouth before swallowing.

  5. Savor – Enjoy the layers of flavor and finish.

Chill lightly for best taste.

❓ Who Can Drink Your Beverages?

Our 0.0% alcohol wines are suitable for all ages and stages:

  • Muslims avoiding haram

  • Pregnant women (with doctor’s approval)

  • People with health concerns

  • Those in recovery

  • Kids’ parties or family-friendly gatherings

If unsure, always consult your physician.

❓ Can I Drink Non-Alcoholic Wines While Pregnant?

Our wines are 0.0% ABV and generally considered safe, but we recommend consulting your healthcare provider before consuming anything during pregnancy. The Surgeon General does not require pregnancy warnings for products with <0.5% ABV — ours are well below that threshold.

❓ Is There Really No Alcohol in Your Wines?

Yes — our wines contain 0.0% alcohol by volume, which is the legal and certified standard for alcohol-free products.

Note: even juices, fruits, and bread naturally contain trace ethanol (under 0.1%), but they’re not intoxicating. We guarantee our products are tested and verified at 0.0% ABV, not the 0.5% often found elsewhere.

❓ Can I Get Drunk From Non-Alcoholic Wine?

No. It is not possible to become intoxicated from our wines. They contain zero alcohol and offer no intoxicating effect — regardless of how much you consume.

❓ Are All Your Products 0.0% Alcohol?

Yes, every product on our site is 100% alcohol-free (0.0% ABV). Most are also Halal Certified by globally trusted organizations. We do not carry beverages labeled as “low alcohol” or with 0.5% ABV.

❓ How Many Calories Are in Each Serving?

Our wines are designed to fit a healthy lifestyle. Per serving:

  • Calories: ~12–75

  • Sugar: ~3.5g or less

  • Carbs: ~3.5g or less

Much lower than traditional wines or sugary sodas.

❓ Where Are Your Wines Produced?

Most of our wines come from top-tier wineries in France, Spain, Italy, and Germany, where dealcoholization methods are cutting-edge and focused on preserving flavor. As we grow, we continue to source 0.0% wines from other innovative regions globally.
