Story

Moderato started the way all good ideas do: two people crossing paths at exactly the right moment. Fabien, the brand brain with a taste for doing things differently, and Sébastien, born into wine and raised on terroir, looked at the way we drink and thought… surely there’s another way. Not less pleasure, not less flavour - just a smarter balance. Moderato is their answer: wines made for people who love wine deeply, but don’t always want the alcohol attached.

What sets Moderato apart is how seriously they take the craft. This isn’t grape juice in disguise - it’s real wine first, made from carefully chosen grape varieties and proper winemaking, then gently dealcoholised with precision and respect. They use low-temperature vacuum distillation to lift the alcohol while keeping the soul of the wine intact. Every decision is about harmony - acidity, roundness, structure - so the final wine still feels satisfying, and alive. It’s moderation without compromise, pleasure without pressure, and proof that “non-alc” can still taste seriously good.

This Blanc de Noirs sparkler is all about bright charm and easy elegance. Expect a rush of pear drops and lemon sherbet on the nose, with a soft, lightly biscuity note adding a nod to classic fizz vibes. The bubbles are fine and creamy, giving a gentle mousse that keeps things smooth and refreshing.

PAIRING GUIDE

Food-wise, lean into freshness and texture. This is great with salty nibbles like roasted almonds, olives, or crisps, and shines alongside light starters like cucumber and herb salads, seafood-style dishes, or vegetable tempura. The acidity cuts beautifully through creamy elements, so soft cheeses, pastry-based bites, or even a lemony tart will sing. Perfect as an aperitif, brunch pour, or anytime you want sparkle without the heaviness.
