2024 Preservative Free White

Pure, expressive and crafted without compromise.

A Happs Original

In 1987, Erl Happ took a bold step: crafting wine without added preservatives. The result was a revolution in the glass. Today, we continue that legacy with our Preservative Free White — a complex, full-flavoured wine made with modern winemaking precision and no sulphur dioxide.

This isn’t just for those with allergies. It’s for anyone who wants to taste wine in its purest, most unspoiled form.

Tasting Notes

Aroma

Lifted aromas of crème brûlée, pastry, stone fruit and lemon rind, layered with white flowers, cashew, cumquat and hints of warm apple pie.

Palate

Creamy and rich with fig, quince, lemon butter and almond meal. There’s a beautiful roundness to the texture and a long, luxurious finish. Fresh, expressive and deeply satisfying.

FAQs

What does ‘preservative free’ mean?
It means no sulphur dioxide or other preservatives have been added at any stage of winemaking. We rely on careful handling, clean fruit and protective bottling to maintain freshness.

Can I cellar it?
Yes. While it's ready to drink now, our preservative free white can confidently be aged for up to five years.

Is this safe for people with sulphite allergies?
Yes. This wine is made without added sulphites and is a great option for those with sensitivities.

What’s the difference between organic wine and preservative free wine?
Organic wine is made from organically grown grapes and may still contain preservatives. Preservative free wine focuses on winemaking without additives like sulphur dioxide — regardless of how the grapes were grown. Some wines are both, but they’re not the same thing.
