The wine
Record
FRE’s alcohol-removed sparkling brut is a California sparkling wine with the alcohol taken off after fermentation. The page’s nutrition block puts it under 0.5%, at 80 calories and 21 grams of carbohydrate per 8 oz serving, and at 27% juice. The vineyard section names a spinning cone. The FAQ on the same page names spinning-cone columns and vacuum distillation. Bottle size and a shelf price were not on the page that was opened. A score waits on a pour.
