Cover Story: Non-alcoholic wine is gaining popularity as a healthier alternative to traditional wine, offering potential health benefits without the risks associated with alcohol. Key sensory attributes like taste and aroma are important for consumer preferences, with sweeter and balanced notes being preferred. Moderate red wine consumption has been linked to reduced cardiovascular mortality due to beneficial compounds like resveratrol and quercetin, which are found in both alcoholic and non-alcoholic wines. Health-conscious consumers are increasingly drawn to these advantages. However, most research in this area is observational, highlighting the need for additional studies on non-alcoholic alternatives. The challenges we face include isolating the effects of bioactive compounds and enhancing non-alcoholic wine production through innovative methods. View this paper
