Okay is all I can say
This was my first attempt at n/a wine. I had no idea what to expect. I think I made a face when I took the first drink. This one is not on my keeper list.

The grapes are harvested manually and before destemming, the grapes are selected in the winery. Once the grape has been destemmed, it is placed in maceration vats for a period of three to four days, at a controlled temperature of 14ºC. After the maceration process, fermentation is begun using cultured yeast. Overpumping is used during fermentation in order to provide color and structure. Later, the wine is racked and a young wine is produced, which complies with the quality requirements for dealcoholization. After racking the wine, the dealcoholization process begins. dealcoholization is carried out using a pressure system at a low temperature, where high pressure and a temperature of 30ºC are combined in order to convert the ethanol into vapor. The vapors are removed with a gas extractor and the rest of the wine remains in liquid state, without the ethanol. Once it has been dealcoholized, the product undergoes a partial aging process, during which 60% of the wine which is to be dealcoholized is placed in French Oak barrels. The wine remains in the barrels for 4 to 6 months and is subject to an ongoing stabilization process to ensure that the dealcoholized wine does not deteriorate in the barrels, despite not containing any ethanol.
