What is the difference between red and white wine?
The differences between red and white go far beyond colour. When grapes are used to make red wine, a must (pulp) of red or black grapes undergoes fermentation with their skins. White wine is made by fermenting the juice pressed from white grapes or the must extracted from red grapes that have had minimal contact with the grape skins. Rosé wines are made from red grapes where the juice is allowed to stay in contact with the dark skins long enough to pick up a pinkish color, but little of the tannins contained in the skins.
