    Is it possible to create a non-alcoholic wine that satisfies the traditional wine consumer? 🍷 In this episode, we dive into the category with the greatest growth potential—and the greatest technical challenge—in the wine industry.

    • The Market Gap: Why non-alcoholic beer holds six times the market share of non-alcoholic wine.
    • Technology: How new dealcoholization methods preserve aromas.
    • The “Tiebreaker”: Why distribution is just as critical as product quality.
    • Consumer Psychology: How to overcome skepticism and reset expectations.
