| Verdict | Dealcoholized Pinot Noir rosé under 0.5% ABV. Soft red-berry fruit, lightly sweet, mild acid, and a clean, simple berry finish. | Strawberry, red currant, and citrus blossom — bright berries and peach, lively acidity, mostly dry, a clean medium-short berry-and-citrus finish. | Strawberry, rose, and apricot on a light, juicy frame — bright acid, dry-leaning close with savory red fruit. |

| Likeness | Reads as a soft, fruity pink more than a structured Pinot Noir rosé — berry first, mild acid, short and clean. | A mostly dry rosé with real acid. Strawberry, red currant, and citrus blossom convince more than any sweetness does. | Fair-to-good: pale rosé fruit and acid are there; savory dry close helps; mid-palate stays light. |
