What is White Wine?

A type of wine made from the fermentation of grape juice without the skins, resulting in a light-colored beverage. Typically produced from green or yellow grapes, it can also be made from red grapes by pressing them quickly to separate the juice from the skins.

Its color ranges from pale yellow to golden hues, depending on the grape variety and aging process. They exhibit a wide array of flavors, including citrus, apple, pear, and floral notes, and are generally higher in acidity than red wines, contributing to their refreshing quality and making them excellent for food pairings.

Fun Facts About White Wine

• Ancient Origins: It has made for thousands of years, with evidence of its production dating back to around 6,000 BC in the region now known as Georgia.
• Color Variation: The colour can vary widely from pale straw to deep gold, influenced by grape variety, winemaking techniques, and aging processes.
• Oaked vs. Unoaked: The use of oak barrels during aging can impart flavors like vanilla, butter, and spice to white wine. Unoaked varieties tend to emphasise the fruit and acidity.
• Chilling is Key: It is best served chilled, typically between 45-55°F (7-13°C), which enhances their refreshing qualities and aromas.
• Food Pairing: Versatile with food pairings; for instance, Sauvignon Blanc complements salads and seafood, while Chardonnay pairs well with creamy dishes.
• Sparkling White Wine: Some of the most famous sparkling wines, like Champagne, are made from white grape varieties, demonstrating the diverse styles.
