Dry white wine

Dry white wine...

Dry white wine is classified as alcoholic beverages, the sugar content of which is no more than 0. 3 percent. The natural product is distinguished by a subtle harmonious soft taste, exquisite aroma and moderate acidity. It is unique in that in the process of manufacture the drink does not lose the specific features of the aroma of the grapes from which it is produced. In addition, it is revealed by a unique bouquet that contains the tones of wildflowers and herbs with subtle aromas of rose, acacia flower and strawberry shades. Shades of dry white wine can range from golden green to light straw depending on grape varieties, technology and region of manufacture.

This fragrant drink is appreciated by many grape wine lovers. In addition, dry white wine is often used in cooking, where it is customary to add it in the process of preparing various dishes and confectionery.

Regardless of the types of dry white wine, the production process of this natural drink as a whole is not very different. Grapes for these purposes are collected exclusively mature, which is then crushed, with the removal of ridges, skin and bones, after which it is pressed and used to make wine.
