Valuing Red Wines
There are more than 50 main varieties of red wines, but many people fail to recognize that the differences in those varieties go beyond the name on the label. Devotees, however, realize the colors of reds can range from the lightest blush of red wine to deep purples, with some reds being nearly black in color. The flavors tend to vary as greatly as the colors, including fruity flavors and those with a slight taste of tobacco. Anyone who wants to develop a greater appreciation for this versatile wine should begin with learning more about it.
Both the color as well as the flavor of wines which are red is a combination of what the variety of the grapes that are used as well as the process that the wine was made through. Grapes used to make reds range from deep red to purple to blue and the skins are left on during fermentation. The skins contribute to the varieties of color and, along with the grape seed, determine the amount of tannins in the finished product. The longer the skins are left in contact with the fermenting grapes, the deeper the color and the higher the tannin content. Reds with the highest tannin content are considered full-bodied, like Cabernet, while lower tannin content gives medium-bodied Merlot or light-bodied Beaujolais. The fruity reds, which are named because of their flavor not because there is any sweetness, have the lowest tannin content of all the reds.
In addition to creating the variety of colors present in red wines, fermenting grapes in the skin also contributes flavenoids to the wine. The antioxidants, which are found in grape skin and seeds, enter the wine during the fermentation process. As a result, the concentration of flavenoids increases with the body of the wine. Four ounces of red wine per day contributes to heart health by reducing clotting, lowering bad cholesterol levels and raising good cholesterol levels. Flavenoids are also thought to play a part in forming nerve cells that may be key in avoiding the onset of Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases. Flavenoids also aid in preventing the growth of cancer cells.
Some people seem to have the mistaken belief that the only difference between the red wines and the whites is the color, or that the difference between types of reds is merely what is on the label of the bottle. Such beliefs fail to recognize the subtle variations of color, flavor and aroma that have been perfected by wine makers. In reality, the differences in the wines begin with the grapes and continue through the wine making process. Knowing the subtleties of the variations leads to a much a greater appreciation of them.
Are you a devotee of outstanding wines but do not know the way to judege the wine for its true value? Do not be discouraged. There are resources out in in retail outlets as well as on the internet that can educate you on the ways to assess the intrinsic value of wines and even instruct you on how to create your own wines. There are even books that educate you on the techniques to cultivate and grow your very own grapes! Just imagine how happy your friends will be when you give them with a present comprised of from your own garden.
