| Verdict | Lot 229 is Grenache from the South of France, fermented as sparkling wine, then dealcoholized by reverse osmosis to under 0.5% ABV. | Research record | Red berry, ripe peach and pear meet vibrant acidity and a lightly earthy finish in this sparkling rosé. |

| Likeness | The dry bead and the berry-and-pith line read as sparkling rosé. Thinner than crémant, and that missing weight is where the likeness stops. | Research record | The acid does the wine work. Red berry, ripe peach, and pear stay vivid, and the mouthfeel is finer than the usual alcohol-removed pink. A little earth on the close keeps it on the wine side of soda. |
