Tasting White Wine

After tasting red wine for quite sometime today I got opportunity to taste a white wine and this time I did feel the real difference between them. It was the Italian sparkling wine "Prosecco Villa Jolanda" . As they say White wines are usually a good place for beginners to start because they are initially more palatable to novices since they often tend to be sweeter.

The main difference between red and white wine is that grape juice used to make red wine contains skins, seeds, and stems. As a general rule of thumb, red wines are heavier and more complex than white wines
