Tasting Notes

Our original Lilly Pilly De-Alc Sparkling has a perfectly balanced flavour profile that represents a true Australian sparkling, minus the alcohol. Blended from a variety of South Australian grapes, all of which are selected for their ability to hold up beyond the dealcoholisation process. We have added the native botanical Lilly Pilly to provide further astringency and finished the sparkling with a fine bead that will tickle the desire for a crisp, glass of bubbles.

 

Vinification & Cultivation

Crafted only for our premium wines

Vineyard Cultivation

Polka is an Australian non-alcoholic drinks company built around premium South Australian fruit and native botanicals. The Lilly Pilly cuvee draws on a broad base of white grapes sourced across South Australia's cooler districts, where limestone and clay-loam soils and Mediterranean conditions favour bright natural acidity. Rather than a single-season statement, the wine follows a house-blend approach, combining eleven white varieties to build a consistent, crisp base each year. Wild-harvested native Lilly Pilly, a coastal rainforest fruit, is added for a distinctly Australian lift. Growers are chosen for clean, aromatic fruit picked at moderate ripeness so the base retains freshness through de-alcoholisation.

Vinification

The blend is built from eleven white grape varieties, each vinified as a still base wine before assembly. Fruit is pressed gently and cool-fermented to preserve primary aromatics, then the components are married into a South Australian cuvee. Alcohol is removed by low-temperature distillation, a gentle process that lifts alcohol below 0.5% ABV while protecting delicate fruit character. The de-alcoholised wine, which makes up the bulk of the blend, is finished with a little grape juice concentrate, wild-harvested Lilly Pilly extract and ascorbic acid, then carbonated to a fine, dry sparkle. The result is crisp and low in sugar rather than sweet. Exact carbonation method NEEDS VERIFICATION.

About this Wine

South Australia

If you like Australian wine, then you probably like South Australia wine. The rich reds produced there put Australia on the wine-making map of the world. With over 40% of the countries vineyards, South Australia can rightfully call itself the wine state.

Wines are produced in several regions throughout the state, though many are naturally grouped together, like Barossa and Eden Valleys, only 15 minutes apart. They include such regions as Barossa Valley, Clare Valley, Eden Valley, Coonawarra, Adelaide Hills, Kangaroo Island, Langhorne Creek, The Limestone Coast, McLaren Vale and Wrattonbully to name but a few!

Barossa Valley boasts some of the oldest vines in Australia dating back to 1843 and produces some of the world's finest Shiraz, whilst the 'terra rossa' soils of Coonawarra is most suited to producing outstanding Cabernet Sauvignons. If you're a fan of Riesling, Clare Valley is a great place to explore and for a Maritime climate not dissimilar to parts of the Italian coastline, seek out the wines from McLaren Vale.
