Edenvale opens $5m processing facility

Edenvale has invested $5 million into a new processing facility located in the heart of the Murray-Darling.

The new facility incorporates GoLo 2200 technology, powered by a direct heat-pump system that performs heating and cooling duties at the same time, meaning the energy required for dealcoholisation is reduced by half.

Edenvale winemaker Aaron Milne says this new technology will improve the wines in several ways.

“Using this new technology, the wines only require one treatment instead of two, meaning less heating and handling of the product; this removes less of the other components of the wine, leaving more complex, wine-like characteristics in the product ensuring greater vinosity,” he says.

“On top of this, it’s very energy efficient, improving the sustainability of our products and reducing our overall carbon footprint which is a major focus of our business.

“It also gives us greater control over the production of our wines, allowing for more hands-on experimentation to fine-tune our methods and recipes, so we can continue to provide premium, high-quality wine that caters to an alcohol-free lifestyle.”

Edenvale founder Michael Bright adds that we’re now at a point where alcohol-removed wine shouldn’t be compared to its traditional wine counterpart.

“It needs to be viewed and valued as its own category, as so many people are choosing non-alcoholic wine as their preferred beverage due to personal tastes and lifestyle choices,” he says.

“With this in mind, we’ll continue to research, trial and push the boundaries when it comes to crafting alcohol-removed wines that consumers love and trust – our commitment to continual quality improvement, innovation and sustainability, now enhanced by this new technology, will set a new standard in our industry.”
