Pale gold in the glass, crisp apple and a soft citrus lift, a clean food-friendly finish. Noughty's still Blanc is the quiet white in the lineup, the bottle you uncork on a Tuesday with whatever's on the table.
Grapes: Chenin Blanc, Chardonnay
Sweetness: Semi-Sweet (20.8 g/L residual sugar)
Key ingredients: Dealcoholized organic white wine, grape juice.
Good to know: Under 0.5% ABV. Made from organic grapes and gently dealcoholized. Vegan and halal certified, lower in sugar and calories than most alcohol-free wine. Founded in London by Amanda Thomson, the alcohol-free arm of Thomson & Scott. Worth knowing before you pour: at 20.8 g/L this measures semi-sweet on our five-level scale. Bright acidity makes it read drier than the figure suggests, and the figure is still the figure.
How to enjoy: Serve well chilled in a wine glass, the proper one. Pairs naturally with food: cheese boards, light pasta, grilled fish, takeout night. Refrigerate after opening; finish within three days.
Swizzle's Take: We pour this one on a Tuesday, when the table wants wine and not an occasion.
