About This Drink
Bottega 0 White is built on grape must rather than dealcoholised wine. Glera and Moscato from the Veneto region are pressed and blended with water, then carbonated to produce a lightly sparkling, zero-alcohol drink that sits closer to a lightly fizzy grape juice than a conventional sparkling wine, though it presents itself very much in that format. In the glass it pours a pale straw with a steady stream of fine bubbles. White peach and melon come through on the palate, underpinned by the natural sweetness of the must. It is soft and approachable rather than sharp or acidic, with enough freshness to keep it from tipping into cloying territory. The sweetness is upfront, so it suits those who like a gentle, fruit-forward sparkling drink. Serve well chilled in a flute. A reasonable stand-in at celebratory occasions where the format matters more than complexity.
