| Verdict | Black cherry and plum lead a rounded red with soft tannins, tart cherry, and a lightly drying grape-skin finish. | Grad 36° is 75% dealcoholized red wine with damson, currant, and blackberry juice. Under 0.5% ABV, still, 750 ml. |

| Likeness | — | More wine-like than most nonalcoholic reds because the tannin and the acid are real. Fruit and herbs sit on that structure. They do not replace it. |
