Italy About to Start Making Domestically Dealcoholised Wine

The Drinks Business reports that Italian producers are on the verge of being able to dealcoholise wine inside Italy, a notable shift after years in which they had to send wine to countries such as Germany and Belgium for processing. The change matters because producers quoted at ProWein said the old system added cost and unnecessary transport, so the reform could make Italy more competitive in low and no alcohol wine while also reducing the environmental burden of shipping wine abroad for treatment.
