20. Champagne & Sparkling Styles
Some Champagnes & Sparkling wines are bone dry, while others are off-dry and still others are sweet. The level of sweetness depends on the last step before the cork, dosage.
Extra Brut or Brut Natural – Bone dry - the driest of the dry
Brut – Dry. This is the typical style of Champagne, with no sweetness
Sec – Still very dry but with a hint of sweetness.
Demi-sec - While the definition is half dry, think of it as half sweet. This wine will be fairly sweet.
Doux – also known as rich, this wine is the sweetest you can get in Champagne –over 5% sugar. It's a dessert in itself and very rare.

21. Sparkling Wines & Champagne
Sparkling wines are enjoyed around the world for their festive addition to a meal or celebration.

40. Red Grape Varietals
There are about 40 important red grape varietals grown in the world today. The major ones are listed below.
Generally speaking, as you go down the list the grapes will go from light to full-bodied in texture; low to high in tannin level; lighter to deeper in color (which generally corresponds to perceived acidity); younger to older in ageability.
In truth the redness of a wine depends on contact with the skin of the grapes: separate the grape from its skin soon enough after picking and you can make a very white red. For example, most wines made in Champagne are white wines made with a significant proportion of red grapes.

41. Red Grape Varietals
European wines will usually be identified by their appellation; elsewhere wines will be identified by varietal.

48. Pinot Noir (PEE-noh nwahr)
Just as Merlot was pooh-poohed by Miles in Sideways, Pinot Noir was worshiped in its glorious difficulty.
Pinot Noir is a finicky grape. It only grows in the right climate, with the right soils and the right care. Perhaps because it is so difficult is why it is so loved. Pinot Noir’s home and the classic wines from the grape hail from Burgundy. Pinot is the only grape allowed for AOC wines of the region. Pinot Noir mutates easily and so there are many different clones floating around in each wine region.

49. Pinot Noir Food & Order Listed
Pinot Noir is the red grape of Burgundy.
It is well represented in the United States by California and Oregon. At its best, Pinot Noir can range from strawberry-scented, to plumy and earthy.

59. Cabernet Sauvignon (cab-uhr-NAY sow-veeh-yawn)
King of Red Many refer to Cabernet Sauvignon as the king of red grapes. Perhaps that title is due to its ability to grow worldwide in a number of climates, or to the fact that it produces wine with such character yet such diversity. Either way, this grape is responsible, as a whole or a partner, for some of the greatest wines in the world. In Bordeaux Cabernet Sauvignon is the principle grape of the Medoc. It plays a supporting role in the blends of the right bank in regions such as St-Emillion and Pomerol. Most of the classic and cult wines of Napa Valley are made with Cabernet Sauvignon.

62. Bordeaux Blends
The Fab Five With so much history under its belt, it’s no wonder that Bordeaux has figured out the recipe to produce amazing wines.
Centuries of making (and drinking) wine has led them to the blend that has become synonymous with Bordeaux.
Winemakers in the New World replicated this formula and have created successful blends in their respective areas - you may see Bordeaux blends from the US labeled Meritage (rhymes with heritage).

63. Bordeaux Blends Notable Facts
Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot. These five red grapes are the components of a Bordeaux Blend.
Cabernet Sauvignon and/or Merlot are usually the predominant variety,
while Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot are the supporting cast.
These three grapes help to add color, structure or body in varying amounts.
A Bordeaux Blend typically uses at least three of the five grapes to be labeled as such. The beauty of the blend?
Each year the percentage of each grape in the blend will vary and the winemaker can include more of the variety that excelled in that particular vintage.

67. Dessert, Fortified & Fruit Wines

68. Dessert, Fortified & Fruit Wines
These are wines made with addition of spirits to raise the alcohol content. The greatest are Port from the Douro region of Portugal, and Sherry from a region of Andalusia in southern Spain. Since wines in other countries are labeled as port, true Portuguese is now labeled

69. Sherry
Sherry is a fortified wine from the area around Jerez, Spain ("Sherry" being the anglicized corruption of the word "Jerez"). Made primarily from the Palomino grape, Sherry is another of the world's great expressions of chalky soil (along with Chablis, Burgundy, and some Loire wines).

70. Sherry
With non-vintage Champagne, Sherry is also one of the great expressions of the blender's art. In the Sherry Bodegas, fractional blending systems called Soleras, ensure a style of wine uniform from vintage to vintage. In the finest of these, space is left in the barrels of the solera for a special yeast called "flor" to develop and thrive. Sherries run from completely dry, light "finos" to nutty "amontillado" (remember "The Cask of Amontillado"?) to rich "oloroso." The latter two are often sweetened and sold as cream sherry or other proprietary brands. Interestingly, because of the fortification and the exposure to air-Sherry essentially being oxidized already!-an open bottle of Sherry will last almost indefinitely. Sherry is the perfect wine for tapas.

71. Fruit Infused
A “Fruit Wine” is generally any wine that is fermented from a fruit other than grapes. None of the fruit character comes from the addition of fruit flavors but is the natural product of fruit fermentation. There are many different types of fruit wines, but the some of the most popular include: Red Raspberry, Blackberry, Cherry, Cranberry and Blueberry. These wines are big and intense in their fruit character as it typically takes over ten pounds of fruit to produce one gallon of premium fruit wine.

72. Fruit Infused
“Fruit Wines” have a multitude of uses. They are often consumed slightly- chilled (55 degrees F) with a dessert course. For example, Blackberry and Red Raspberry wines are a great accompaniment with dense chocolate desserts as the wine cleanses the palette of the sweet chocolate.

73. Port
Port is a sweet fortified wine from the grapes growing on the deep valley walls sloping down to the Douro River in Portugal. Its name coming from Oporto, Port is made from up to about 40 grape varieties, most of which are red. After a brief fermentation to about 6% alcohol, the still fermenting grape must is poured off into larger containers holding spirit, which kills the yeast and stops fermentation.

74. Port
The young wine is then shipped from the vineyards to the Port houses in Oporto, where it stays in barrel for a year or two. At that time a "vintage" can be declared, and the Port bottled with a vintage designation. This Port virtually demands 15 or 20 years of bottle age. In order to have Port that is enjoyable at purchase or shortly after purchase, there are other "wood-aged" Ports, which have spend more time in cask. These can be young "Ruby" Ports, aged "Tawny" Ports (which will sometimes average up to 40 years in cask), and "Late Bottled Vintage" Ports. Port traditionally accompanies walnuts and stilton cheese.

75. Dessert Wines
Dessert wines can be enjoyed on their own or with sweets to complete a meal.
Some dessert wines can actually be enjoyed with savory dishes.
Experiment and see which combinations of food and wine you enjoy!
