Summary: Wine comes in many flavors, tints, tones, levels of dryness and blends. Wines are used for cooking or to enhance the flavor of a meal or certain dish. Wine is made from the fermentation of fruits such as grapes, strawberries, elderberries and blackcurrants. Depending on the grapes, the product yielded is called zinfandel, pinot grigio, pinot noir, merlot, chardonnay, blanco noir or other variations of wine. Some wines include carbon dioxide that is a product of fermentation. These wines are sparkling wines or champagnes and are often used in celebratory events such as weddings, graduations, holiday parties, and other occasions.
