A true Loire, alcohol-free: inside Divin
There's a quiet difference between a wine made in France and a wine grown in France, and it's the whole reason Divin is in our cellar.
Many non-alcoholic wines are built from base wine sourced wherever it's cheapest, then finished and labelled in France. Divin does the opposite: based in Touraine, in the Loire Valley, it owns its vineyards — it grows, picks and ferments its own fruit, then removes the alcohol last. This is a true Loire, not a flag of convenience.
Founded in 2018, Divin launched its Origine range in 2020 — the first 0.0% dealcoholised Sauvignon Blanc made by anyone in the Loire — and by 2022 was the region's leading non-alcoholic producer, now exporting to more than forty countries. Development is led end to end by winemaker Alessandro Baribe, an oenology graduate of the University of Milan.
The range we've chosen is the Vigneron tier: terroir-led, single-varietal, oak-aged, at 0.5% ABV — the wines a serious drinker reorders. The Vigneron Sauvignon Blanc is stainless-fermented then rested three months in oak; the Vigneron Pinot Noir rests in 228-litre Burgundy barrels and is decorated — Gold at Mundus Vini 2025, Gold at the World Alcohol-Free Awards 2025, and 90 points at the IWSC 2025. And the Chenin Moelleux fills the dessert course almost nothing else in the category can.
A French vigneron's range, grown on French soil — that simply happens to be alcohol-free.
