Non/comformity shapes the future
A NON-ALCOHOLIC CURATION CREATED IN-HOUSE BY SOMMELIERS & CHEFS USING TECHNIQUES FROM THE KITCHEN.
Wine has long held court as the reigning companion to gourmet dishes, yet a quiet revolution is brewing. A transformation spearheaded by a Melbourne-based NON, offering a refreshing alternative to traditional alcoholic beverages. NON’s non-alcoholic wine alternatives provide the depth and complexity of traditional wines without the buzz, offering an inclusive option for those who prefer not to drink alcohol.

Each NON product is meticulously crafted using a blend of unique ingredients, emphasizing natural flavours and complexity. The result is a range of drinks that not only mimic the sensory experience of wine but also stand on their own as exceptional beverages.
