Over the millennia of its existence, man has learned to produce many types and types of wines. Different technologies, variety of raw materials, local climate and gastronomic preferences mean that the wines made can vary greatly from each other.
King Cabernet
The Cabernet order includes a whole group of dry red wines, born in the French province of Bordeaux, and is divided by grape variety into Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. The unpretentious late-ripening grapes Cabernet Sauvignon willingly take root and bear fruit in different climatic conditions, and its taste is so individual that it is simply impossible to confuse this wine with one of its fellows. Classic Cabernet Sauvignon is distinguished by a very mild tannin astringency, moderate sourness, the obligatory presence of currant and cherry aftertaste, and the signature violet aroma is generally characteristic only of it. In a young wine, you can feel a subtle note of morocco, which is ennobled when the drink matures. Expensive Cabernet species can be infused for up to 10 years, reaching a maximum in the development of organoleptic properties.
Due to its light astringency, Cabernet is ideal for meat and fatty foods, removes radionuclides, and has a bactericidal effect.
Sorcery of Jerez
Wine gourmets claim that real sherry can only be produced in Andalusia. No other country in the world can achieve such dryness of wine, aroma and extraordinary taste with hints of fresh yeast.
The bodega looks very unusual - a room where wines are infused. An old building with very high vaults and an incredible number of barrels stacked on top of each other. Wines are bottled from the lowest row. After the wine has been poured, sherry is added to the lower tier from the second, to the second tier - from the third, etc. The barrels are busy here all the time, participating in an endless process. The sherry barrels themselves are made only from American oak, and their service life lasts up to 70-80 years, unlike other winemaking, where the barrels are changed every 3 years.
In barrels, there is always room for air, with the help of which a yeast film of flora forms on the surface, giving the drink a unique aroma and taste. Aging under flora can last up to 15 years, and then a truly precious sherry is born.
Riesling variety
The main wine of Germany, German Riesling, is simply amazing with its huge variety. Dry, semi-sweet, sweet, ice wines are all Riesling. A century ago, white Rieslings were considered the most expensive, surpassing the famous Bordeaux in cost. Riesling is an amazing cool grape variety. Therefore, most technological processes require a lower temperature. To preserve the freshness of the future wine, the harvested berries are slightly cooled. The process of fermentation and fermentation also takes place at a low (up to 17 ° C) temperature. It is because of such careful processing that very fresh wines are born with a rich aroma of spices, green apples, citrus fruits, peaches and even green herbs. Sweet types of Riesling are also striking in their freshness and balanced taste.
