Pétanque is a sophisticated non-alcoholic wine alternative, created through a collaboration between Proxies and three-Michelin-star chef Dominique Crenn. Crenn crafted a drink that perfectly balances depth and brightness—just like her culinary artistry.
At its core, Pétanque features a vibrant blend of Riesling, verjus, and yuzu, giving the beverage a refreshing acidity and clean structure. This foundation is enriched with floral notes and herbal complexity—hints of honeysuckle, osmanthus, and sage rounded out by an elegant finish of makrut lime.
A layered triple-tea profile adds texture and depth, encouraging a mindful sipping experience. Designed to pair beautifully with seafood and French cuisine, Pétanque’s minerality highlights delicate flavors like Breton oysters, while its herbal character complements richer dishes such as buttery California shrimp.
Proxies is a Canadian company specializing in the production of non-alcoholic wine alternatives, designed for those who want to enjoy the complex flavors of wine without the presence of alcohol.
