A little question about red wine

1. Except for beer, which is labeled as having a wort strength and an alcohol strength, the alcohol content of other distilled spirits, liquors, wines, and mixers is the number indicated on the bottle label. Most red wines are 13.5 or 14.5 degrees.

2. All genuine red wine is not added coloring, red wine red pigment, and its unique tannins, are from the grape skin and seeds. After the red grapes are picked, they are put into the press with their skins and seeds (and sometimes stalks), and after the juice is extracted, the skins are immersed in the juice and fermented together (this process gives the wine its bright red color).

3. Domestic first-time drinkers should choose a lighter, fruity wine, such as red wines from Burgundy, and Pinot Noir, a grape variety that is also popular with domestic first-time drinkers.

4. The more famous domestic appellations are located in the Northeast Appellation, Jiaodong Peninsula Appellation, Changli Appellation, Shacheng Appellation, Tianjin, Qingxu Appellation, Ningxia Appellation, Gansu Wuwei Appellation, Xinjiang Appellation, and Yunnan Appellation.

In addition to the above major producing areas, in the country also sporadically distributed a lot of wine grape planting and wine production bases, such as Sichuan Xiaojin, Maoxian, Jiuzhaigou, Guangxi Yongfu, Luocheng, Du'an, Inner Mongolia, Urumqi, Kailu, Ulanbuh Desert, Shaanxi Tuxian, Danfeng, Yulin, Weibei, Hubei, Huangpi, Hunan Lixian and so on.

The more famous ones are: Shanxi, Ningxia, Gansu, Shandong, Xinjiang

5. There are about 5,000 kinds of grapes all over the world, but there are less than 50 kinds of grapes that can make quality wines, and different grapes will make different wines.

But relatively speaking, white grapes can only make white wine, red grapes make red wine, but in some cases, red grapes can also make white wine by de-stemming and removing the skins (such as Champagne, which is also a white wine)

Gamay. Pinot Noir (Gamay and Pinot Noir) are two varieties of grapes more suited to the tastes of the people of China, because their fruity flavor is quite strong. Because its fruit flavor is quite strong, fresh in the mouth, and soft tannins.

I hope the answer is helpful to you.
