Happy Wine Day to all! We have come to that favorite day of the week when we discuss wine.
Dry wine, in the technical sense, contains virtually no residual sugar. All of the natural sugar in the grapes has been converted into alcohol through fermentation. Sweet wine is really fruitiness. Ripe wine grapes, when fermented, yield a wine that tastes of fruit (but curiously, not usually of grapes), and fruitiness powerfully suggests sweetness. This week why don't we post what type of wine we like "dry" or "sweet" and any wine recommendations you might have for the type of wine you like.
We're looking forward to your answers!
Smiles,
Donna :-)

Sweet wine: Muscat - light orange flavor, great with desserts, very pricey, but worth it.
Dry wine (and I take it not champagne): white burgundy, goes with just about everything. I like it chilled. My favorite: Mouton Cadet.
And while we're at it: sake. A bit on the musty side, strong, serve body temp. Try to eat something, first, or you'll never be able to get up from the table. LOL!
