Fun Facts About Wine

Unusual Wines

Unusual wines are a fascinating category of wines that offer a unique taste experience. These wines are often made from uncommon grape varieties, grown in unexpected locations or made using unconventional methods. Here are some examples of unusual wines that you might want to try:

  • Ice wine: This wine is made from grapes that are harvested when frozen, which concentrates the sugars and flavors. It is usually sweet and has a fruity taste.

  • Orange wine: This wine is made from white grapes that are left to macerate with their skins, which gives them an orange color and a tannic taste. It is often described as a combination of white and red wine.

  • Sparkling red wine: This wine is made from red grapes, but it is carbonated like a sparkling wine. It is usually light and refreshing, with a fruity taste.

If you want to learn more about unusual wines, there are many resources available online and in books. Some good books to check out are "Unusual Wines" by Richard Juhlin and "The World Atlas of Wine" by Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson.
