fermented grape juice. The chemical
composition of wine is about 87.7% water,
11% alcohol, 1% acid, and 0.2% tannins.

5. Types of Wine

6. Natural Wine
• is farmed organically (biodynamically, using
permaculture or the like) and made (or rather
transformed) without adding or removing
anything in the cellar

7. White wine
-contains little or no red
pigmentation.
-always made from white grapes, but
can be made from black grapes as
well.
- winemakers can make white wine
from black grapes because the juice
in most black grapes is actually clear.
White wines can be sweet or dry, or
somewhere in between.

8. Red Wine
-made from black grapes and have
a red or blue tint.
- have colorless juice, so to make
red wine the grape skins, which
contain nearly all of the grapes’
pigmentation, have to remain intact
with the juice during all or part of
the fermentation process

9. Rose Wine
• pink in color, and can be
referred to as rosé, pink
or blush wines.
• made from black grapes,
but don’t fully turn red
because the grape skins
are removed from the
juice mere hours after
contact.

10. Sparkling wine
-made from nearly any variety of grape, are wines
that contain carbon dioxide bubbles
- carbon dioxide occurs naturally during
fermentation, and winemakers around the world
have developed special techniques to trap
carbon dioxide in the wine.

11. Fortified Wine
Fortified wines are wines that have alcohol added to them.
These wines, which include Port, sherry, Madeira, and
Marsala, have extra alcohol added in the form of flavorless
grape brandy

12. Aromatized wine
Aromatized wines are wines flavored with fruit, spices, and
florals in addition to added alcohol
