Types of white wines
Of all the types of white wine, we differentiate between dry white wine, the most common, sweet white wine, in which fermentation is interrupted before the sugars are converted into alcohol, and sparkling wine, in which the CO2 remains dissolved in the wine and is transformed into gas once the bottle is uncorked.
