THE UNIQUENESS OF WHITE WINE

White wine is made from grapes without red skins, which gives it its characteristic yellowish color. In contrast to red wines, many white wines are first pressed and then fermented, also known as must fermentation. This production process differs from the mash fermentation of red wines, where the color is extracted from the red grape skins and colors the clear grape juice.

WHITE WINE - JOURNEY THROUGH ORIGIN AND HISTORY

The most famous white wine growing regions in the world, including Germany, Italy, Spain, France, and South Africa, each tell their own story. Germany is known for excellent Rieslings, while South Africa shines with outstanding Chenin Blanc. Historically, the first wines produced were red wines, and white wines presumably emerged later from mutations of red wine varieties.

AROMAS AND FLAVOR PROFILE OF WHITE WINE

White wine is a fascinating beverage with a diverse palette of aromas, strongly influenced by the respective grape variety. Characteristic aromas of stone fruits like peach and apricot, combined with exotic fruits such as pineapple, mango, or guava, define many types of white wines. Additionally, they often offer subtle mineral notes that bring a certain freshness and complexity to the wine. These multifaceted aromas and flavor profiles make white wine an exciting and versatile choice for wine lovers who wish to enjoy a wide range of sensory experiences.
