 We were at the Vancouver location of Everything Wine, saw this Barrels And Drums Alcohol-Free Chardonnay, and decided to give it a whirl. I can't find a ton of information on the wine (or the brand) online, though I did find a tech sheet in German, so there's that.
So I think the wine is from Germany, and the 4.3 grams of residual sugar sounds about right. It's sweet. And not overly wine-y. Honestly, I probably couldn't differentiate it from Welch's white grape juice. I know. There IS a lot of green grape in there, and (very) ripe mango with a squeeze of blood orange. I'd LOVE to see some acid in there; it would make it more lively and delicious. I dunno, if the sweetness were attractive to some (and I'm sure it is), I'd definitely go for spicy Thai curries, Nashville Hot Chicken, or (my personal choice) Jalapeño-Flavoured Miss Vickie's Potato Chips.
