The short take

A standout dealcoholized red, and convincing in that style. The structure carries the dark fruit, the sweetness stays inside the fruit, and the shift from blackberry and oak into cherry and plum rewards a slower sip. I would keep a bottle on hand.

Who it’s for A slower glass of Tempranillo, when dark fruit and the grip should still be there at the end.

In the glass

Appearance
Deep ruby-purple.
Nose
Medium intensity. Blackberry leads and stays in front of the glass. A quiet trace of oak sits behind that fruit and does not cover it.
Palate
Off-dry and medium-bodied. Black cherry and plum unfold across the sip, and bright acidity lifts them. Moderate tannins gather along the gums. The gentle sweetness, the acidity, and that grip stay in balance, so the sweetness never takes the glass over.
Finish
Medium length. Black cherry and plum linger after the swallow, and the tannic grip lingers with them. The fruit does not fall away and leave the grip alone.

How wine-like is it?

Separate from the score. A convincing resemblance is not a higher rating.

Convincing as a red wine. Bright acidity and a distinct tannic grip supply the structure, and the sweetness stays inside the fruit.

The wine

What holds the 90 is proportion. Bright acidity, a distinct grip, and a little sweetness that lives in the fruit stay with one another. The sweetness never takes the glass. That is the balance that makes this convincing as a red wine, and the reason another sip feels available rather than polite.

The smell does not try to be a full inventory. Blackberry is the arrival, and the oak is only a quiet second layer, enough to keep the fruit from reading as juice. Then the register changes. Cherry and plum take the sip. The tannin is moderate, and it catches along the gums without drying the fruit out. Sweetness is present, and it shows up as roundness rather than a syrup line sitting on top.

Color is a deep ruby-purple. Body sits in the middle, which is where this glass wants to be: enough weight to carry the dark fruit, and not so heavy that the grip gets lost in it. After the swallow, cherry and plum remain beside the grip for a medium spell. Nothing new shows up late, and nothing important leaves early. When the plum fades, I want the next pour. I would happily keep this bottle on hand.

90 sits above the median of the 220 dealcoholized wine bottles we've tasted.

Research notes

The same page’s product description prints "Grapes: Tempranillo, Syrah" and "Origin: La Meseta, Spain". The producer page lists 15 kcal and 2.3 g sugars per 100 ml. The laboratory page describes the range: vacuum distillation at 30°C, down to a maximum residual of 0.3%, then aroma recovery, and a replacement of lost sweetness with natural sugars. The shop’s own tasting lines, including blackberry sorbet, pepper, and dry, are not this glass. Serve at 15–18°C is the producer’s recommendation.

Where sources disagree

Sources disagree on the following points.

  • Calories: The package value is canonical for this bottle. The earlier producer value is retained as source history.
  • Identifiers: The photographed Tempranillo package EAN is assigned to Cuvée Rouge No. 2 in the catalogue from an unchecked retailer listing. The relationship between these packages is unresolved; no identifier has been reassigned.
  • ABV: Both claims are retained. No exact residual is stored. The public figure is the product page ceiling, under 0.5%.
  • Grapes: Both claims are retained. No blend percentage is stored.
  • Ingredients: Both claims are retained. The ingredient list is the product table. The red-wine page’s "no additives" line is not used to delete must or sulfur dioxide.
