Rose

Jess Selander had gone more than seventeen years without a drink when she started Jøyus, and her point was simple. Not drinking should not mean sitting out the toast. This rosé is the quiet everyday bottle in the range, built dry rather than sweet, which is the split that decides whether a non-alcoholic rosé is worth opening. Watermelon, ripe peach and fresh herbs come through on the palate, with the herbal note keeping the fruit in check. The alcohol is removed gently so the delicate aromatics survive, leaving it under 0.5% ABV at 75 calories for the whole bottle. Serve it genuinely cold, colder than you would a red, in a proper wine glass. It suits a slow brunch, an afternoon with friends, or a Tuesday that does not need a reason.
