9 Wine Terms that Everyone (Who Drinks) Should Know

Cheers! Lets get the skinny on wine. If you love wine, you’ll love to know the ins and outs of the wine. Are you a sweet, dry, tart wine drinker? What you may want to know about each individual tastes.

• A wine’s body refers to how much you feel the weight of the wine on your palate (in your mouth).
