10 Alcohol-Free Wines for Dry January

the best alcohol free ​wines to try this month

Put ⁣down that sad glass of tap water. If you are taking a break from alcohol, I ⁢have ⁣some of the very⁤ best options out there, none of which involve pretending​ you enjoy drinking London’s chalky,⁢ limestone-heavy water.

Spoil Yourself
Even in the ​driest of‌ months, there is probably a cause for festivity, a⁣ time you wont to ​push the boat out ⁣and⁣ shed ‍a few more pounds ⁢- from ‌your wallet. So ⁤why not impress with some fine hangover-free fizz. Producers ⁢have ‌spent years perfecting these to give a richer, more “vintage” expression.

You can‍ put the bling into no-booze drinking with Bolle⁣ Gran Reserve​ Blanc de Blancs ​(bolledrinks.co.uk, £49.99). This is unique​ among the alcohol frees‍ for being the​ first and only‍ one ⁤of its kind to be⁣ lees-aged,which‍ means the​ liquid rests‌ on the‍ yeast cells,just as a⁢ champagne would,giving it the biscuity,toasty notes associated with customary method sparkling.

French Bloom La Cuvée Vintage ‍2023 (uk.frenchbloom.com, £109) has the rare trick of lauding a vintage on the⁢ low-or-no scene. This sparkling is made from organic French Chardonnay grapes and aged for​ eight months in oak barrels to give⁣ it depth and complexity. Founded by Maggie Frerejean-Taittinger (the‌ clue’s in the name) and top model Constance Jablonski, this⁤ drips with prestige.

Well-priced wines
Some baulk at ⁤spending big bucks on a soft drink, so thankfully there are some affordable bottles that still ‌deliver⁢ tasty drinking moments for​ less. REAL Sec Sparkling Tea (Waitrose, £11.50) ⁢does a range‌ of styles made from grape skins ‍and tea that make a great alternative to vino thanks to its layers of flavor‍ and wine-like tannins. Their Sec ⁣is a fruity, peachily rounded sparkling drink made from Darjeeling. It’s softly‌ fruit-forward with a hint of smokiness.

Zeno Alcohol-liberated Sparkling ⁤(Waitrose, £10.50) is a bottle of fizz that’s dry and elegant, with⁣ notes ‌of​ elderflower and crunchy green apples. It’s bright,quaffable and still​ feels celebratory.
