Sav Winery AB

SAV Winery AB is a Swedish company producing a sparkling "wine" based on birch sap which is collected from the birch in early spring when the tree is drawing up water from the ground into the tree trunk.

The birch sap is known since centuries back as being a "healthy beverage" and has been used all over the world where the birch is growing. It has also been used for producing "wine" for several hundred years but probably be know as a kind of the "poor man´s wine".

Our product, SAV 1785 Pétillant Naturel, is a sparkling "wine" produced according to a combination of "method traditionell" and "method ancestra". To make a wine based on birch sap and especially a sparkling wine in an industrial scale according to a method similar to ta making champagne (first fermentation in tanks and second i the bottle) is somethin we are first to do and we call it "method Suedoise" as it has been developed in order to handle the birch sap as the raw material it is. 

At present we produce only one variety, SAV 1785 Pétiallt Naturel, but already this autumn we will start producing a new variety which will be on the market in about one year and will be a more "brut". 

We launched SAV 1785 in December 2019 in the Swedish market (to Systembolaget AB) and in April 2020 we had our webshop up and running and since then introduced it to consumers in about 20 EU countries. Today we have also have established sales to Norway, Gemrany and Italy through various channels.

So far we have sold approx 30,000 bottles and we have a large production capacity in our factory in Östersund in the northern part of Sweden and we can deliver larger volumes with short notice.

The company is privately owned with 10 major shareholders and approx. 500 smaller "crowd funding investors".
