Sugar-Free Wine: Exposing the Marketing Myth
Send us a textMeg and Mel tackle misleading wine marketing claims, exposing a company that touts "zero-sugar wine" as revolutionary when most dry wines already contain negligible sugar levels. They investigate a suspicious endorsement from a non-existent Master of Wine and taste-test the underwhelming products.• Most dry wines already contain minimal sugar (around 0.5g per litre or less)• The fermentation process naturally converts grape sugars into alcohol• Laboratory testing confirmed the "zero-sugar" wines contained typical residual sugar levels• The company's advertisements quote "Judith Smalls," a Master of Wine who doesn't exist• Th...

From an astonishingly good $8 Aldi find to a textural, oak-influenced Fumé Blanc and the mineral-driven elegance of Loire Valley classics like Pouilly-Fumé, we're rediscovering what makes this grape special.The diff...
