Red Wine

Ever been told to bring a bottle of red wine to a party, and be flabbergasted when looking at the wine aisle in a specialty store or supermarket? Well, you're not alone, and to be honest, it's not easy to seek out the "right" bottle. There are many different red grape varietals out there, but the easiest way to categorise them would be based on whether the wine is light, medium or full-bodied.

We encourage you to be adventurous & try something you've probably never had before! Read up more here!

Is red wine very acidic?

While red wines do contain acidity, they are generally less acidic than white wines. This lower acidity contributes to their smoother, fuller-bodied mouthfeel. However, the level of acidity can vary depending on the grape variety, region, and winemaking techniques. Some red wines, like Barbera or Sangiovese, can be more noticeably acidic, while others, like Malbec or Merlot, tend to be more mellow.

What is a sweet red wine?

While most red wines are dry, some offer a touch of sweetness. Look for terms like "off-dry," "semi-sweet," or "dessert wine" on the label. Popular sweet red wines include Port, Lambrusco, and certain Zinfandels. Remember, sweetness is a matter of personal preference, so explore and find what delights your palate!
