Assignment~Classification of wine

Most the people only divide wine into red wine and white wine. And actually wine can be classified in three major categories: table wines, sparkling wines, and fortified wines. Table wines, also called still or natural wines, are consumed mostly with food, they tend to compliment the meal. Sparkling wines, for example champagne is distinguishable by its effervescence and is drunk for the most part on festive occasions such as weddings, birthdays, and during the holidays. Fortified wines, such as sherry or vermouth, are most commonly drunk before or after meals and it is also frequently used in cooking.

Table wines are further classified by color, as red, white, or rosy; and by character, as sweet or dry. Red wines are made from the skins of dark grapes. White wines may be made from green grapes or from dark grapes, but with white wine the grape skins and pressed juice do not come into contact unlike red wine. True rosy wines are the products of dark grapes; their skins remain in contact with the juice only until it has turned into a pale pink.

Now that you are familiar with the three most famous typesof wines: table wine, sparkling wine, and fortified wines,perhaps the next time you are out grocery shopping you canpick out the right bottle for that perfect occasion.
