About Not Guilty
Not Guilty is a range of premium zero-alcohol wines created by Australian wine brand McGuigan. The collection offers full-flavoured, full-bodied wines for those who want to enjoy wine without the alcohol, with the tagline "Feeling Naughty but want to be Good? Join the Zero Crew." The wines are crafted by winemaker Jamie Saint using state-of-the-art de-alcoholising technology. Grapes are crushed and fermented at cooler temperatures of 18-22°C for 5-7 days to nurture fruit flavours and retain varietal characteristics. Post-fermentation, McGuigan uses spinning cone technology at low temperatures to gently remove alcohol while preserving the delicate fruit flavours, resulting in wines with no more than 0.05% ABV. The Not Guilty Pinot Grigio is an off-dry white wine packed with lifted florals and notes of citrus and pear. This wine achieved Gold at the prestigious World Alcohol Free Awards 2025, demonstrating the quality that can be achieved in alcohol-free wine production. The range also includes a red blend for those preferring fuller-bodied options. All Not Guilty wines are vegan and vegetarian friendly, gluten-free, and contain no refined sugars - only natural grape sugars. This makes them suitable for various dietary requirements including those following sober curious lifestyles, designated drivers, pregnant women, and anyone moderating their alcohol intake. Not Guilty wines are widely available across UK supermarkets including Tesco, Morrisons, and Asda, making alcohol-free wine accessible to mainstream shoppers. The brand represents the growing trend toward premium no-alcohol alternatives that don't compromise on taste or the wine experience.
