A truly precious treasure. The first of its kind. This bottle represents the world’s first 20-year-aged, dealcoholized wine: the Zeronimo Century Blend. This rarity is a blend of the Austrian variety Blaufränkisch, Pinot Noir, and Merlot. The grapes come from 60-year-old vines at the renowned Neckenmarkter Hochberg in Mittelburgenland, Austria. The wine was aged for two years in new French oak barrels, followed by another 18 years of bottle aging. It is limited to just 2,500 bottles – each uniquely numbered.

This non-alcoholic red wine offers an exceptional aromatic profile. Ethereal, sweet, harmonious, and complex, it will particularly appeal to lovers of aged wines – all while being alcohol-free. On the palate, flavors of cassis, eucalyptus, forest floor, caramelized mushrooms, and nougat combine to create a magical composition. Two decades of history in a glass deliver a monumental and unique drinking experience that reminds us: the most precious thing of all is time. Joshua James on his first sip of Century Blend:
Did Zeronimo really achieve this? Yes, and the result speaks for itself. This wine is a testament to one truth: the most precious thing of all is time.
The foundation of this exceptional dealcoholized wine lies in the winery’s unique philosophy to consciously hold back portions of top vintages since 2002. For Katja and Patrick, aged wines have always been among the most fascinating experiences the wine world has to offer.
Many things in life take time, and wine – especially Blaufränkisch, Austria’s most important red wine variety – requires significant time to mature to perfection. Witnessing the remarkable transformation of certain grape varieties and watching a wine evolve year after year is nothing short of magical. Drinking wine at its peak is incomparable, and Zeronimo’s mission is to make this experience accessible to everyone.
Creating an aged, non-alcoholic wine was a natural next step for Zeronimo. During their research, the founders observed that while dealcoholization reduces primary fruit aromas, the secondary and tertiary aromas (the hallmarks of aged wine) remain beautifully intact. Inspired by this discovery, the project “Century Blend” was born.
The process was not without risks, as the feasibility and challenges of crafting an aged, non-alcoholic wine were significant. However, guided by the motto “Trying is better than studying,” Katja and Patrick forged ahead. The results were astounding.
“For me, this rarity is truly exceptional and a revolution in non-alcoholic wine. When I first tasted it, I was deeply moved and momentarily lost in its beauty. It is, without question, the best non-alcoholic wine we have ever crafted,” winemaker Patrick shared in a recent interview.
The Century Blend showcases what happens when tradition and craftsmanship unite with innovation. The result? Something truly unique and extraordinary.
