All about Wine
What is Wine?
Wine is an alcoholic beverage fermented with grape juice. The contents of wine are usually water, alcohol, acid, sugar, and phenolic compounds like anthocyanins, tannins, and vanilla.
Wine color and general style are known by the type of grape used and the amount of skin contact during juice extraction. There is no relation between wine color and its sweetness. The flavor of the wine will also change by the region where grapes are grown.
Popular Types of Wine
The two most popular types include white wine and red wine. These types further divide into sub-types, giving options to drink different tastes.
Sparkling wine is for celebratory moments to enjoy the special occasion. Types of sparkling wines are white, rose, brut, and more.
