Alcohol Free Wine.

[Grauntie Mag]

Has anyone tasted this?
A friend who has given up alcohol recently told me she buys a perfectly passable AF Merlot from Asda. I thought I would buy some for when she comes to dinner. Asda tell me they have stopped selling it now, but I am sure I’ll find some elsewhere.
I just wondered how AF (red and white) wines compare to the real thing. I have tasted AF beers and found some that are fine so long as they are very cold.
Any recommendations?

Not come across any but then I haven't looked.

My son drinks alcohol free wine because of his medication. He finds it perfectly palatable. I am sure some are better than others, as in any wine. Just personal preference.

Not tried any Grauntie.

I've never tried it (as far as I know) but I imagine it's rather like gluten-free drinks. If you find you your enjoy it's just as nice as the alcoholic version.

I am going to buy some to try. I have been doing some research but it seems the white wines are usually sweet and I’m not keen on sweet. I don’t drink red but I’ll buy some for my friend.

I’ve had AF wine, perfectly OK. We usually keep some in for people who are driving but still want a wine-type drink

This is a good idea. I do always provide soft drinks for drivers, but hadst really thought of non alcoholic wine.

[Daisy]

Enfys - what a good idea.

I haven't tried any as yet but will get a couple of bottles in for that special time in December when we entertain our friends who are dedicated drivers.

I seem to recall having AF wine ages back. Something Blossom I think. Might have totally the wrong name. My memory.😉
