Haven’t had that one, but we (hubs owns a wine shop) stock Eins Zwei Zero’s sparkling Riesling and it’s my favorite of the many NA wines I’ve tried. I think it’s generally easier to get a pleasing sparkling NA than still.

I just told a colleague yesterday that I get to work at 70% on a good day.

It's hard to know if this is more about trad-wife brain-melting or boundaries brain-melting. Probably both!
