Ep. 236 – Being Fre with Alcohol-removed Wine

Our non-alcoholic episode series during dry January continues this week. Joe and Caroline try several varieties of alcohol-removed wine by Fre. They discuss the process of making alcohol-removed wine, the price point, and the overall popularity of the NA beverage market.

Remember, if you are participating in Dry January this year, you can still support your favorite Craft Breweries, even if you aren't drinking. Many places offer food and non-alcoholic options. Support local, drink local, even if it is not alcoholic!

What We Are Drinking 

Sauvignon Blanc
Alcohol-removed Wine
Fre (Sutter Home) | St. Helena, CA
ABV: Under 0.5% 

Pairing: Enjoy this crisp, delightful beverage on its own or with goat cheese, pesto chicken, and grilled fish.

"FRE alcohol-removed Sauvignon Blanc offers fresh notes of green grass, and soft, tropical fruit aromas. With each sip you will find bright acidity with delicious passion fruit and mango flavors, classically characteristic of a California Sauvignon Blanc. The slight dry finish will leave you reaching for another glass."

***

Chardonnay
Alcohol-removed Wine
Fre (Sutter Home) | St. Helena, CA
ABV: Under 0.5%

Pairing: Try this Chardonnay with seafood dishes, roasted veal chops, creamy pastas, salads and mild cheeses.

"With its deep golden hue, and lively tropical fruit aromas, our alcohol-removed Chardonnay is elegance personified. Rich, creamy apple flavors mingle with crisp citrus notes on the palate, leading to an enjoyably tart finish."

***

Merlot
Alcohol-removed Wine
Fre (Sutter Home) | St. Helena, CA
ABV: Under 0.5%

Pairing: Herb-crusted lamb chops, hearty stews, juicy hamburgers and pizza. 

"With its plush, luxurious taste, and gorgeous garnet color, our alcohol-removed Merlot delivers plenty of style and grace. With seductive black plum aromas and soft cherry and spice flavors, our Merlot is velvety smooth, with a full, rich finish—a classic beauty."
