Wine, wine, wine – we just can't get enough of the stuff! But let's be real, with all the different types of wine out there, it can get a little overwhelming. Red, white, rosé, and sparkling – what's the difference? Don't worry, mama, we've got you covered.
​
First, let's start with the basics.
Red wine is made from, you guessed it, red grapes. The juice of these grapes is left in contact with the grape skins for a longer period of time, giving the wine its deep red color and bold flavor. Some of the most popular red wines include cabernet sauvignon, merlot, and pinot noir. So, next time you're craving a rich and hearty meal, reach for a red wine to pair it with.
White wine, on the other hand, is made from white grapes. The juice is separated from the skins quickly, giving the wine its light and refreshing flavor. Chardonnay, sauvignon blanc, and riesling are all examples of white wines. If you're in the mood for something light and crisp, grab a white wine to go with your fish or chicken dish.
But what about rosé? It's not just a summertime drink – rosé is a wine made from a blend of red and white grapes. The juice is left in contact with the skins for a shorter period of time than red wine, giving it its pink color and unique flavor. Rosé is the perfect choice for a backyard BBQ or a girls' night in.
And finally, we have sparkling wine. This type of wine is made using a secondary fermentation process, which adds bubbles to the wine. Champagne, prosecco, and cava are all examples of sparkling wines. Pop open a bottle of sparkling wine to celebrate a special occasion or to add a little sparkle to a dull day.
So there you have it, mamas – the difference between red, white, rosé, and sparkling wines. No need to feel overwhelmed next time you're browsing the wine aisle at the store. Now, go forth and enjoy a glass (or bottle) of your favorite wine – you deserve it! Cheers!
