Darling CellarsDarling Cellars Shiraz - Non Alcoholic Red Wine

Darling Cellars have struck a fine balance here—retaining the varietal identity of Shiraz while offering something lighter and more sessionable. Vegan-friendly and low in calories, it’s ideal for anyone cutting back without giving up the pleasure of a good red. Smooth, generous, and unmistakably South African, this is a de-alcoholised wine you’ll want to keep on hand.

Serve slightly chilled at 14–16°C for best results—just enough to wake up the aromatics without losing its smooth edge. Pour it into a wide-bowled red wine glass and give it a moment to breathe. Perfect for relaxed evenings, chilly nights, or any time you want a proper red without the punch.
This Shiraz is a brilliant match for hearty, savoury dishes. It works beautifully with roast lamb, grilled aubergine, or lentil stew, and makes a natural partner for anything involving barbecue flavours or smoky spice. Think mature cheddar,casseroles, or even a slice of pepperoni pizza—its depth and structure mean it stands up well to bold, umami-rich meals.

In the glass, it shows a deep ruby colour with a vibrant edge. Aromas are warm and welcoming, led by ripe plum, blackberry and black cherry, layered with spice, vanilla and subtle oak. On the palate, the wine is full-flavoured and plush, with a generous burst of dark fruit, soft tannins, and a touch of peppery spice. The finish is smooth and gently warming, giving you that familiar red wine feel—without the after-effects.
