NON is a Melbourne-based non-alcoholic wine alternative founded by Aaron Trotman, created to give the drinks table a considered zero-proof option built with the structure and savouriness of wine rather than sweetness alone. Because NON 1 is not made from a single vineyard or vintage, there is no growing-season narrative; instead the house sources whole ingredients, here raspberry and chamomile, alongside components chosen for acidity, tannin and salt. The approach is culinary and blend-led, treating fruit, botanicals and verjus-style acidity as building blocks. Ingredients are selected for aromatic clarity and balance so the finished drink reads as a complex, dry-leaning beverage designed to pair with food, not a soft drink.

NON 1 Salted Raspberry & Chamomile is produced through a culinary process rather than fermentation for alcohol, combining steeped and pressed ingredients including raspberry and chamomile with acidity and a measured touch of salt to build savoury structure. The blend is balanced for tannin, acid and aromatic length so it mimics the mouthfeel of a light sparkling rose, then lightly carbonated to give a gentle sparkle. There is no alcohol, no lees ageing and no oak; the emphasis is on layering fruit, floral and saline elements to a dry, food-friendly profile. The result pours pale pink with raspberry, chamomile and a savoury, salted finish. Exact production specifics are proprietary.
