what does it mean for wine to be "dry"???
@candle you don't taste a lot of sugar in it
@candle Maybe you know Montbazillac ? It is not a "vin blanc sec".
@Kamillion @candle Montbazillac is too sweet. It's like a wine made of candy. Bad candies.
@candle not as sweet, mostly. It's a bit more complex than that, but the most noticable characteristic is it isn't as sweet.
@candle makes your mouth feel 'dry', essentially how I view it.
@candle far as I understand, more sour/bitter in flavour than fruity or sweet
@candle @theoutrider yeah, that's it, when there are legal requirements for dry wine labeling (eg brut champagne) they're about having sugar levels below a certain amount
@candle probably that it has more alcohol than water >:3
@candle hard to describe... weird aftertaste like sand? like sorta how carbonated water feels. honestly, champagne is the only dry wine I can stand to drink.
@candle it's the opposite of "sweet", bizzarrely.
@candle its the opposite of sweet wine and its the good wine ;)
