Typically if you were purchasing a non alcoholic wine, would you prefer red or white?

It is becoming more and more of an occasion in my life. I like it.

for example -

at friends, at family parties and sometimes at restaurants.

Really enjoying the world of NA beers, but missing a nice glass of wine to wind down the day with. I’ve heard lots of mixed reviews on wine, open to suggestions.

Please and thank you, welcome any help.

Thanks for being part of the very first wave. Together, let's make r/nonalcoholicwine amazing.

The branding of NA wines is so hit and miss. NOUGHTY in particular and all of the brands that use the 0% card to make a name for itself seem a like lazy branding.

Place your bets.

thanks for reaching my community.

if you are here it is because you love wine, and you also want alcohol free wine.

there is a lot, and by a lot I mean, in comparison to alcoholic wine, fairly little, discussion on what is good, what to buy and where to start with Alcohol Free Wine.

this community is to discuss what you can get, where you can get it and what works.

At current day we have OK alternatives. They look incredible, never really smell incredible and usually lack the spice/tannins of an alcoholic wine.

that is not to say the industry will have complex, interesting and fun wines for us soon. this community will accelerate that ✨✨✨

P.S. I am alcohol free and health conscious, who can appreciates the craft of wine from nature to glass.

With the NOLO space increasingly rapidly, has anyone found any new products recently?

Do you think anybody of legal age in Mediterranean cultures (aside from expectant females) drink NA wine? I would think they would scoff at it. What do you think is their perception?

The best alternatives in my opinion come from Australian vineyards.

• Giesen is technically new Zealand alcohol free riesling is a premium non alcohol white. Delicious.
• McGuigan Zero Rose is a 0.05% ABV Australian alcohol free rose wine that is crisp and delicious.
• There is even a great red from Australia - tread softly non alcoholic pinot noir.

Enjoy!

I have been dissatisfied with every NA red I have tried. I understand that there are some beverages that are made to mimic red wine, rather be dealcoholised. Has anyone found them, and what was your experience?

Any out there that don’t taste like 50/50 wine and grape juice? All the ones I’ve tried have a grape juice sweetness in the after taste. Not horrible but a little too sweet.

Do you know?

This has something to do with the complexity of a still wine. The alcohol removal takes away so much of the mouth feel. This to me can be replaced by the bubbles. A tricky one.

Sharing is caring

If you want non alcoholic wine, which one are you wanting the most?

92-95/100 Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy: Oct 2020

A healthy 45 hl/ha, made with 45% in barrel and 55% in tank, the parts as yet unassembled (though this sample is). Racy, lime and lemon colour with a very pure intense clean, but ripe nose, with a little spice. Very tasty! This has significantly more weight, some toast from the barrel, a little bit of flesh too, good weight as well, but seems to lack a touch of tension. White fruit typicity remerges at the back.
