Welcome to a wine lover's guide to (relative) sobriety...

What DO wine lovers do when we want time off the booze? What's the best lifestyle approach to minimise intake but maximise enjoyment? What are the best wine alternatives out there?!

Inspired by a question sent in by listener John, in this episode we look beyond wine and explore how to make the most of not drinking. We talk to Stuart Elkington, founder of Dry Drinker, who shares some great stories and insights, as well as to the makers of Chilean booze-free 'wine' brand Sinzero.

On a personal note, we spill the beans on our own 'Happy Medium' (or FOTO) regime, the aim of which is to enjoy wine to the max while keeping the side effects to a minimum.

We also recommend some great No & Low alternatives for wine lovers and even even take the drastic step of sharing our Intake Diary. (Deep breath...)
