The wine

Record

The front label says Appalina, sparkling, dealcoholized wine. It does not name a grape. Hechtsheim makes two alcohol-free sparklers, a Chardonnay and a Pinot Noir rosé, and both are printed under 0.5%. This bottle does not say which one it is.

The producer page does not name the still or the cone. Neither does the label. The wine has not been tasted.

The bottle

Production Dealcoholized

Method Undeclared

The front label reads Appalina Sparkling and Dealcoholized Wine, on the neck and the body. No grape, no residual, and no volume are readable on the front. Weinkellerei Hechtsheim lists two sparklers, Chardonnay Schaumwein and Pinot Noir Rosé Schaumwein. Both are entalkoholisiert and both print less than 0.5% alcohol. That shared figure is the ABV on this record. Gueule de Joie’s Chardonnay sparkling sheet, including 75 cl, vacuum, sugar, and calories, is not applied. The $9.99 figure is the Chantilly shelf.
