Most wine is made in a \u201cdry\u201d style<\/a>, which means that there is little or no residual sugar leftover after the winemaking process. One of the beautiful things about wine is its diversity, however, so never forget that there are some wonderful sweet wines out there, too!<\/p>\n

Regions like Sauternes and Barsac in France and Tokaj in Hungary produce some absolutely outstanding examples. There are many fine examples of sweet Port and Sherry. Lots of excellent Riesling and Gew\u00fcrtztraminer from Germany, Austria and the New World are produced in semi or fully sweet styles. Italian Moscato d’Asti and numerous designations of Champagne and Cava offer sparkling examples. Sweet wines are pretty sweet, all in all.

Sweet wine can be tricky when it comes to food pairing.<\/p>\n

Sweet wine with sweet food<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This one is pretty straightforward: Match the sweetness of the wine with the sweetness of the dish. Take a seriously sweet wine like Ch\u00e2teau d’Yquem 2006<\/a>, serve it with a luscious sweet dessert and experience true decadence. A sweet tart or pastry will be a wonderful food match for this delicious wine, but why not get creative:<\/p>\n
