Noughty Non-Alcoholic Rouge

Noughty Rouge is a beautifully crafted alcohol-free red wine made from 100% Syrah grapes grown in the coastal region of Darling, South Africa. Expertly dealcoholized to under 0.5% ABV using a gentle low-temperature process, it retains the rich character and depth of the original wine while removing the alcohol. This medium-bodied red displays a deep ruby hue and a generous bouquet of ripe red fruits, candied cherries, crushed black pepper, and delicate floral notes. French oak aging adds a subtle warmth and structure, giving the wine a smooth, layered mouthfeel that feels indulgent yet refreshing. With only 14 calories per 100 ml, 2.5 g of residual sugar, and being both vegan and gluten-free, Noughty Rouge offers a sophisticated and mindful choice for any occasion.

Online reviews for Noughty Rouge often highlight its vibrant fruit profile, gentle spice, and balanced tannins, with many praising it as one of the more complex alcohol-free reds on the market. Fans appreciate its ability to pair well with a variety of foods, from grilled vegetables to hearty pasta and pizza, as well as its satisfying texture and finish. On the flip side, some note that while it captures the essence of Syrah, it may not fully replicate the weight and depth of an alcoholic red, particularly for those used to bold, high-tannin wines. Overall, it is well-regarded as a refined, easy-drinking option that makes enjoying the ritual of red wine possible without the alcohol.
