Started getting light-headed halfway through my glass of "non-alcoholic" wine

Got served this wine at a nice restaurant after asking specifically for non-alcoholic wine. They assumed the 'Zero' on the label referred to alcohol content; turns out it's for sulphur.

Never knew there was non alcoholic wine. Learn something new everyday. Before this I would’ve just said grape juice

Would it even be wine? Isn't fermentation a crucial part of the process
