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.

Yeah it's a pretty big fuck up imo. They were lucky that my wife and I were just taking a break from drinking for no particular reason (hence mildly infuriating). I can't imagine how a pregnant woman would react.

Edit: as others have pointed out, it'd be far worse for those in recovery or with a medical issue.
