Winemaking Technique: A first-class wine is fundamental in the process of making a first-class alcohol-removed wine. This alcohol-removed wine is produced through distillation in a vacuum evaporator, which extracts the alcohol by evaporation, followed by condensation. Distillation occurs in two steps: the initial step collects the aromas which are the first to evaporate. The technique of condensing the aromas allows preservation of the natural bouquet, so it can be returned intact to the alcohol-removed wine. The second step, evaporates the ethanol. At the end of the process, the aromas are returned to the alcohol-removed wine. The finished product, retains the same distinctive features and properties as the original wine, without alcohol.
