The how-its-made page names a spinning cone and then a less-than-0.4% result, which is not this bottle’s 0% figure.

Absolute Zero Dry prints 0% alcohol. Van Loveren’s Almost Zero range page says the line is about 0.3%. SAQ also prints 0% for Absolute Zero Dry. The product page’s 0% is the figure used here.

Open dispute
The producer introduction and technical alcohol line state less than 0.5% ABV, while its winemaking paragraph says dealcoholized to 0.5%. Both declarations meet the editorial ceiling but use different qualifiers. The displayed value follows the explicit technical less-than declaration; no measured residual or resolved formulation is inferred.

The producer winemaking section and label artwork give a less-than ceiling. The separate technical-data line gives an exact value. Display follows the label without treating these qualifiers as equivalent.

Global overview

Catalog coverage, with the gaps left visible

635 publicly inspectable records. 21 work-in-progress records are excluded. Catalog composition is coverage—not market size, share, sales, demand, or launches.

Recorded catalog growth

Catalog coverage and firsthand tasted-and-scored coverage are separate series. A catalog addition is a TDS coverage event—not a market launch.

Launch milestone 2026-09-18 First recorded bottle; not a full inventory snapshot.

No earlier comparable inventory snapshots are on record. The chart starts with today’s live snapshot; the missing interval is intentional.

Field-by-field completeness

Evidence states—not a disclosure leaderboard

Completeness is not quality, safety, honesty, or proof that one process makes a better drink. These explicit rules are groundwork for a future Transparency Index, not an index itself.

Removal method

6/6 removal-eligible records have a documented named method. Inapplicable and unknown applicability remain outside that denominator.

Residual ABV

0/6 records have a sourced exact residual claim without an open ABV conflict. Label-only declarations and ceilings stay separate.

Lab-tested residual share is not yet measurable from current records; a declaration is not called a lab result without lab evidence.

Grape varieties

2/6 wine records have a supported grape field. Presence in this catalog does not measure grape demand or tell growers what to plant.
