Verdict Alcohol-removed California white that drinks as thin soft-drink fruit: artificial tropical sweetness, watery middle, negligible structure. Sea Monster's Tidal Wave White is a dealcoholized California white blend using low-temperature spinning cone vacuum distillation: $13-15 retail. A soft, lightly sweet white blend led by green apple, pear, and white grape, with moderate acidity and a clean, short finish.

Likeness Low: soft-drink tropical more than white blend; almost no mid-palate or acid spine. A clean California white in a light frame. Citrus, green apple, and a small floral lift stay intact, and the close is crisp rather than juicy. The likeness is the aroma. The body is the limit. Fruit suggests white wine, but the light body and simple palate give it little structure or depth.
