12 June, 2025

Australia’s Treasury Wine Estates (TWE) has unveiled a new in-house facility for low and no alcohol wine production.

The $15 million facility, situated in the Barossa Valley, features “state-of-the-art dealcoholisation technology” and  “world-first patent pending processes for treating the aromatic component of wine that locks in flavour”.

“This world-leading facility cements our position as a global pioneer in winemaking,” said Treasury Wine Estates chief supply and sustainability officer Kerrin Petty.

“This state-of-the-art technology and proprietary process for de-alcoholisation is our latest step in building a hub of innovation, technology and sustainability in the Barossa Valley, where we’ve been crafting wine to delight consumers for more than a century.” 

The facility will produce low and no alcohol for TWE brands including Squealing Pig, Pepperjack, Matua, 19 Crimes, Lindeman’s and Wolf Blass.

It will also be the home of Sorbet, a new lower abv wine created in partnership with Endeavour Group that will be available from October 2025.

As the name suggests, we’ve used hazel wood as the hero of this edition alongside other familiar, native broadleaf trees, including silver birch and oak from our own forest.
