ALTERNATIVA Dry Red Non-Alcoholic 0.0% – Italian Dealcoholized Alcohol-Free Drink – Ideal for Celebrations and Gifts – 750 ml Bottle

The red and white wines are as advertised, delicious and dry with zero alcohol. I stopped drinking alcohol years ago and have been searching for a 0-alc dry (not sweet) and aromatic wine. Alternativa has delivered such a product and I am grateful.

This wine is about $27. You would think that for that price you would get something that has some resemblance to real wine. The producer states that the wine "Exhibits aromas of ripe fruits with a pleasing and elaborate taste." That is so wrong as to be funny. I used to be a big wine drinker so I know what it's supposed to taste like. I actually just poured this down the drain. For half the money you can get Ariel, which is twice as good. Or, if you need a Friday night alternative to go with the candles, get Kedem grape juice. At least that will taste like something - not a think, acidic, flavorless red liquid.

The smell of the wine when you uncork it is off, it’s too acidic. Unfortunately, the taste matched the smell. The taste it left in my mouth was almost metallic, not pleasant.

I love this wine. I’ve always detested nonalcoholic wines because they taste like overly sweet grape juice. Ugh. This is a dry red wine. Granted, it’s not a 5 star pinot noir, but it’s flavorful and one can enjoy drinking it. I mix it with club soda to make a refreshing wine spritzer. Delicious! I’m addicted to it. I always have several bottles in my wine cooler.

For those interested in this, hear me when I say this: manage your expectations. This is not alcohol. It's an approximation of an alcoholic beverage. If you have reasonable expectations going into this, you'll be much happier. That said, I haven't had alcohol in almost twelve years, and red wine was always something I really enjoyed - this was a pleasant surprise! Side by side, you could definitely tell it's not full-blown wine, but for being totally NA, it's a great dupe! The aroma is almost spot-on to that of real wine, which I love. The taste is complex, fruity, and pleasantly bitter. The only reason it lost a star is that the overall flavor is a bit "watery." Had they kept the same product and simply concentrated it a bit more, this would've been a home run. I do struggle justifying spending this much money on an NA - a definite room for opportunity - but overall if you're looking for a pleasant and worthwhile NA dupe, you can't go wrong with this one! P. S. It looks FANTASTIC in a wine glass!

Best tasting non alcoholic wine from Italy

had wanted to send my son and his wife some NA wine for Christmas as part of an Italian dinner package. Fortunately, after reading mixed reviews on every brand I could find, I decided to order several to do a taste testing before choosing one to send to them. Thank goodness I did. I bought three different bottles of wine, and on Thanksgiving my daughter and son-in-law, husband, and myself all did a taste test. Unfortunately, none of them were palatable enough to even consider. None of us could even take more than a sip or two. Every one of them tasted like nothing but a mix of watered down grape juice and vinegar. It was a huge disappointment as well as a total waste of money. This is one of those reviews that if I could give no stars I would, so I will say that the one star is simply for packaging and presentation. Each bottle arrived securely packaged and in a really nice bottle. Unfortunately, the contents were just awful. This is also one of those times that I should’ve paid more attention to the negative reviews. Don’t waste your money like I did. UPDATE – Because I hate wasting money, or anything else, I decided to get some grape juice and mix it with this NA wine to see if that made it drinkable. I had put the wine in the fridge after opening it, and I gave it a little taste before mixing it with the juice. I have to say that it was SLIGHTLY more palatable and even could pass for resembling wine once well-chilled. It could also be that I wasn’t expecting it to taste exactly like wine this time. I still cannot think about giving it as a gift, but I will likely at least drink it myself over the next few days – mixed with the juice for a little better flavor. I am therefore changing my review from one to two stars. If you do want to buy this as a gift or to serve guests, I definitely suggest giving it a taste for yourself first.

This wine was a complete disappointment. I don’t even know exactly what to compare the taste to, other than watered down lemon water. It was sour, no aroma, and very weak. Definitely not worth the cost, not even worth a single $1. Unfortunately, I bought two bottles - the second is going down the drain.

Provato più per sfizio che per necessità, onestamente ne a me ne a mio marito ha convinto questo prodotto, abbiamo provato a farlo assaggiare anche ad amici ma a nessuno è piaciuto, il gusto è strano e la sensazione generale è più simile a una bevanda aromatizzata, è un prodotto più per festa con bambini che possono brindare tra di loro, riguardo al prezzo proposto di 45 euro per 2 bottiglie è da pura follia vale si e no 1/10, in poche parole se si cerca un’alternativa analcolica che ricordi davvero un buon bianco questo probabilmente non è quello giusto

Ich habe den alkoholfreien Weißwein ausprobiert, weil ich immer offen für gute Alternativen ohne Alkohol bin gerade für Feiern oder Abende, an denen man trotzdem stilvoll anstoßen möchte. Die Aufmachung ist wirklich schön 🍾 und macht auf den ersten Blick einiges her, auch als Mitbringsel. Geschmacklich konnte er mich allerdings nicht überzeugen. Obwohl er offiziell 0,0 % Alkohol hat, schmeckt er für mich trotzdem deutlich „nach Alkohol“. Dieses typische, leicht alkoholische Aroma ist klar da und erinnert weniger an einen trockenen Weißwein, sondern eher an eine Mischung aus Traubensaft und entalkoholisiertem Wein. Die beschriebenen Fruchtnoten sind zwar vorhanden, wirken aber nicht besonders ausgewogen oder frisch. Was mich zusätzlich genervt hat: Der Korken ging extrem schwer aus der Flasche 😕. Für ein Produkt, das unkomplizierten Genuss versprechen will, fand ich das ziemlich unpraktisch, gerade wenn man Gäste hat oder einfach entspannt öffnen möchte. Positiv ist, dass er gut gekühlt trinkbar ist und optisch definitiv etwas hermacht 🥂. Wer sehr empfindlich auf Süße reagiert, wird ihn wahrscheinlich auch nicht als zu süß empfinden. Für mich persönlich stimmt aber das Gesamtpaket nicht, vor allem im Verhältnis zum Preis. Fazit: Eine nette Idee und schick präsentiert, aber geschmacklich eher enttäuschend und mit kleinen praktischen Schwächen. Für mich kein alkoholfreier Wein, den ich nochmal kaufen würde.

Un tanto caro para el resultado final.

une vrai déception :17 € pour de la piquette italienne ! Passez votre chemin ,dans le commerce vous trouvez des sans alcool de qualité pour un prix raisonnable !

Es ist schwer, ein Fan von diesem Breezin’ Weißwein mit 0,0 Prozent aus Italien zu werden, da man sich bewusst sein muss, dass Wein maßgeblich vom Alkohol lebt. Wenn dieser entzogen wird, bleibt oft nur ein Getränk zurück, das eher an einen verdünnten Traubensaft erinnert. Ein wesentlicher Kritikpunkt liegt im Zuckergehalt. Obwohl der Wein als trocken deklariert ist, weist er einen Anteil von 4,2 Prozent Zucker auf, was nach meinem Geschmack schlichtweg zu hoch erscheint. Trotz der versprochenen Noten von Birne und tropischen Früchten wirkt das Geschmackserlebnis am Ende nicht ganz stimmig. Sicherlich gibt es bessere alkoholfreie Getränke auf dem Markt als ein alkoholfreier Weißwein. Wenn man jedoch an einem geselligen Weinabend teilnimmt und keinen Alkohol trinken kann oder darf, bietet dieses Set aus zwei Flaschen eine akzeptable Lösung. Man kann unter diesen Umständen wohl kaum mehr erwarten, als eine alkoholfreie Alternative, die optisch in der Runde zumindest mithalten kann.
