And they are so named based on the type of grape variety used.
For example, wine made from Zinfandel grapes is called Zinfandel; wine
made from Sauvignon Blanc grape is called Sauvignon Blanc. So on and so forth.
In countries such as the US, the wines are named after the grape variety used, while in other parts of the world, such as Europe, the labels are given based on the region or appellation of the grapes.
Hence, we get names such as Cabernet and Merlot, which are named after the variety and Bordeaux and Champagne, which are named after the region.
The quality, character, and taste of the wine is going to depend largely on the type of grape variety used, and the actual wine making process. The best way to distinguish between them is to taste the wine yourself.
Just as important as the grape variety or region, is the house, otherwise known as the producers that make the wine. Examples of famous wineries include Beringer or Domaine de la Romanee-Conti. Related Articles
