Earlsmann VINE: Award-Winning, Naturally Alcohol-Free Drinks

Devon-based drinks maker Earlsmann VINE is redefining alcohol-free choices with a unique range of wine-style blends that are never fermented, naturally alcohol-free, and refreshingly not sweet.

At this year’s Taste of the West Awards, Earlsmann VINE received two prestigious accolades:

• Gold Award for its Blush (Grenache-style)

• Silver Award for its Sauvignon Blanc NZ-style White

These awards highlight the quality and originality of a brand that set out to provide a genuine alternative to traditional wine. Unlike de-alcoholised products, VINE is crafted from grapes and natural ingredients to deliver a sophisticated experience — without compromise.

Founder Simon Thornton explains: “When people taste VINE, the reaction is always the same — surprise that it’s not sweet, and delight that it’s refreshing. Winning Gold and Silver at Taste of the West shows there is a real appetite for something new in the alcohol-free space.”

Earlsmann VINE is already stocked in a small number of outlets and is planning further l expansion in 2025/6. With momentum building, it’s a brand to watch in the growing alcohol-free market.
