GN Wines – the award-winning partnership between Graham Norton and New Zealand winery Invivo – is launching GN Zero Sauvignon Blanc, the range’s first alcohol-free wine. It joins the existing New Zealand and South African Sauvignon Blancs, offering wine lovers a GN for every occasion, with or without the alcohol.
The new 0% wine was crafted in New Zealand by Invivo Cofounder and GN Wines winemaker Rob Cameron, who has nearly three decades of winemaking experience, including in zero and lower-alcohol wine. Rob started with the full-strength GN Sauvignon Blanc – known for its trademark “zing” and crisp acidity – then used spinning cone technology to gently remove the alcohol, before rebuilding the palate weight to restore mouthfeel.
The result is a fresh, expressive alcohol-free Sauvignon Blanc with texture and mouthfeel that stays true to GN Wines’ signature style – balanced, bright and seriously drinkable.
GN Zero Sauvignon Blanc has fresh aromas of tropical fruit, zesty citrus and crisp green apple. The palate is clean and lively, with classic New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc acidity, finishing smooth, fresh and moreish – without the alcohol.
Graham Norton said: “My new GN Zero Sauvignon Blanc still has that delicious New Zealand zing we all know and love – so even if you’ve got an early start the next day, or you just fancy a glass without the consequences, you’re not missing out on a drop of GN flavour.”
Invivo Cofounder and GN Wines winemaker Rob Cameron said: “We’ve wanted to create a zero-alcohol Sauvignon Blanc with Graham for a long time. The real challenge with producing a great 0% still wine is texture – so after gently removing the alcohol, we rebuilt the palate weight using natural techniques to keep that classic GN mouthfeel. The result has all the hallmarks of a great New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, just without the alcohol. As more people flex when and how they drink, this is the perfect pour – and a natural fit alongside our full-strength New Zealand and South African Sauvignon Blancs.”
The GN Wine range now features seven wines: GN Zero Sauvignon Blanc, GN New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc, GN South African Sauvignon Blanc, GN Prosecco DOC, GN Rosé Prosecco DOC, GN Shiraz from Australia and GN He-Devil Malbec from Argentina.
During a visit to Invivo’s vineyards in Marlborough, New Zealand in March 2025, Graham was awarded the region’s first-ever “Grape Ambassador” title by the Prime Minister of New Zealand and the Mayor of Marlborough, in recognition of his long-standing advocacy for Sauvignon Blanc.
GN Zero Sauvignon Blanc will be available this Autumn in the UK and Ireland.
