| Verdict | Almost Zero Ravishing Rosé is a Van Loveren dealcoholised rosé at 0.33% ABV — soft berry, short finish; dealcoholised by spinning cone, per the producer. | Giesen ferments a full-strength Marlborough and Waipara rosé, then removes the alcohol with spinning cone technology. Less than 0.5% ABV. |

| Likeness | More pink drink than rosé. Soft strawberry, low acid, and a candy-pink close. The fruit is there. The wine structure is not. | It reads as rosé rather than pink soda: stone fruit and cranberry, off-dry, on a light frame. The short middle is the limit. |
