White wine

White wine is an alcoholic beverage that is produced from white, rose and red wine varieties. The necessary condition for the production of this drink is the fermentation of grapes in the absence of the skin of its grains.

The light shade of the white wine is due precisely to the absence of the grape skin, since the juice from the fleshy part of the grains of most grape varieties is practically colorless.

The natural white wine has a versatile soft taste, a refined aroma and has a pleasant golden hue. Depending on the grape varieties used in the production, the taste of the drink may differ, but it always retains its refined aroma.

Due to the wide variety of grape varieties and recipes for the preparation of this drink, many brands of white wines are available on the Bulgarian market.
