Noughty, the rather good nonalcoholic sparkling wines , made by Thomson & Scott of London, have been joined by the company’s new still red nonalcoholic pour (at less than .5 percent alcohol). Produced in South Africa from syrah grapes and a far cry from Hermitage, it’s still an acceptable quaff alongside burgers or kebabs off the grill. It will be excellent for sangria; serve it chilled. Though lacking much nose, it does deliver a grapy palate that is not sweet, has body and, what makes it distinctive, delivers a welcome touch of tannin.
