Uva Candle

4.4 / 5

Earl of East is a London-based home fragrance and lifestyle brand that celebrates ritual over routine. Founded in 2014 by creative partners Paul Firmin and Niko Dafkos, it began as a side hustle selling candles from a market stall in Hackney. Today it’s a global business, stocked in over 300 stores worldwide, with four of its own lifestyle stores in London.

Niko Dafkos, co-founder of Earl of East says:

“We created Uva for shared meals and life around the table. It captures grapes ripening on the vine, so pairing it with Future Château's Reserve Rouge felt like a natural fit. Together they make the run-up to Christmas feel like part of the celebration.”

This Discovery Pack gives you a sparkling wine, a Sauvignon Vermentino blend, and a Syrah Grenache blend together in one mixed case, ideal for weeknight tasting, small gatherings, and gifts for curious wine explorers.

Grown, not manufactured

Don’t call us “low alcohol” or “mid-strength”. That kind of wine is made by sending full strength wine away to an ethanol plant to have the alcohol stripped out, taking flavour and texture with it. Future Chateau works differently, creating wines that are naturally lighter from the very beginning, with every stage happening at the winery.

FAQs

Everything you might want to know before you open a bottle.

What is Future Château?
Wine. Properly made, in the vineyard, in Northern Victoria. Sparkling, Reserve Rouge, Reserve Blanc, and Blush Rosé — all 6.5% ABV.
Why 6.5%?
Because that’s the strength that lets you drink wine on a Tuesday and still feel like yourself on Wednesday. Half the alcohol of a normal bottle, all the wine.
How is it made?
From the vineyard up. We grow and pick grapes specifically for this style — we don’t just take a finished wine and strip the alcohol out. No spinning cones, no reverse osmosis. Just real winemaking. See more detail in the 'How we make wine' page.
Is it sustainable?
Yes, we are proud to be certified under the Sustainable Winegrowers Australia program.
Will it taste like wine?
Yes. The Sparkling has toast and texture. The Rouge has tannin and grip. The Blanc has weight. The Rosé is dry and savoury. None of it tastes like a compromise.
Are the wines vegan?
Yes, all four.
Calories?
Lower than standard wine — alcohol is the calorie driver. 39 kcal per glass vs around 130 in standard wine.
