STEINBOCK

Mosel / Germany

Whether one chooses not to consume alcoholic beverages, seeks an alternative during a moment in time, or is observing a fast like “Dry January”, the rituals of wine and celebration remain part of our culture. Unfortunately, no-alcohol wines have lagged behind other beverage alternatives in quality and taste.

Seeking to find the best NA wines for our portfolio, we found ourselves turning to a familiar winemaker, Alto Adige producer Martin Foradori Hofstätter. His eponymous @hoffstatter winery is already a favorite at Archetyp, and he’s built on his reputation for innovation by seeking to create one of the world’s finest lines of NA wines: Steinbock.

Containers of freshly harvested wine grapes

Having purchased the historic Mosel estate of Weingut Dr. Fischer in 2014, Hofstatter accomplished the goal of reviving a storied Riesling producer as well as finding a source for an excellent base wine to produce the Steinbock line.

Three things distinguish Steinbock from most of its competitors:

The wines are made by a world-renowned wine producer, with the standards for quality that accompany that reputation
The process begins with high-quality, fully-fermented and matured base wines made from Riesling grapes from the steep, 5 to 35 year-old vineyards of Dr. Fischer.
The process of extracting the alcohol is done using the German-engineered “Vacuum Process”, which achieves the extraction of alcohol at lower temperatures than other methods, retaining delicate aromas and flavors.

The low thermal stress of Steinbock’s process ensures that the character, taste and fine aromas of the original wine are preserved, and the remaining alcohol content is less than 0.25 % ABV. Steinbock allows you to join the festivities at any time, while remaining health-conscious all the time.
