Enoteca Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President: Shinji Hori) will launch 'Joya Organic Sparkling Chardonnay Prestige', a wine-taste beverage with 0.0% alcohol (*2) co-developed with French winery Chavin in the wine-taste beverage (*1) market, nationwide in April.
'Joya Organic Sparkling Chardonnay Prestige' is the prestige cuvée of 'Joya Organic Sparkling Chardonnay', which was released in 2021. Aiming for the fresh and elegant style of Champagne, it was created based on the brewing techniques Chavin has cultivated over 15 years, following a three-year co-development period with Enoteca.
Its ingredients use Chardonnay grown via organic farming across 15 vineyard plots facing various directions at altitudes of 50-400m in southern France. The harvested grapes are brewed and aged by plot, and 15 types of base wines are blended using the assemblage (*3) technique applied in Champagne. Furthermore, 6-9 months of lees aging and partial aging in French oak barrels bring depth and complexity to the flavor.
In manufacturing, rather than the non-fermentation method that does not use fermented ingredients adopted in 'Joya Organic Sparkling Chardonnay', it employs a dealcoholization method that separates only the alcohol after it has been fully completed as wine, maximizing the wine's original aroma and taste. No flavorings are added, allowing you to enjoy aromas derived entirely from the wine itself, such as white flowers, citrus, yellow peach, apple, brioche, and toast. The mouthfeel is smooth, with remarkably delicate bubbles. The flavors of ripe apple and brioche linger, leading to a dry, crisp finish.
*1 Beverages with an alcohol content of less than 1% to 0.005% or more that express the aroma and taste of wine using wine grapes and manufacturing methods are referred to by the company as 'wine-taste beverages'.
*2 Contains less than 0.1% alcohol derived from raw materials.
*3 A traditional technique of mixing multiple different grape varieties or base wines from different vineyards and brewing years.
In recent years, due to rising health consciousness and the diversification of lifestyles, a growing number of people are actively choosing not to drink alcohol. On the other hand, there is an increasing demand, particularly among wine enthusiasts, for an authentic taste and drinking experience even from wine-taste beverages.
In light of this background, the company released the wine-taste beverage 'Joya Organic Sparkling Chardonnay' in 2021 under the concept of 'an emotionally moving experience even without alcohol'. Evaluated for its quality, 'Joya Organic Sparkling Chardonnay' ranked 3rd in the 'NIKKEI Plus 1 Anything Ranking: Cheers with Non-Alcoholic Wine!' (published December 20, 2025). 'Joya Organic Sparkling Chardonnay Prestige' is a product that offers an even more authentic...
