The white grapes that mainly produce white wine are green or yellow, which is a very common variety in the world, which is why this wine is produced in many regions of the world. Some varieties are very well known, such as Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling. There are also varieties of black grapes, such as Pinot Noir, which are used to make white wine or champagne.
Among many types of white wines, dry white wines are the most common. It is more or less aromatic and acidic, and originates from the complete fermentation of the must. Sweet wines are wines whose fermentation is interrupted before all the sugar in the grapes is converted to alcohol.

White wine is usually drunk before meals, snacks, desserts or soft drinks. Traditionally it is accompanied by white meat and certain types of cheeses. Its consumption is also usually related to the consumption of fish and shellfish.
