Red Wine - Beginning With 'L'
Red wine is made from red (or black) grapes - with the skin being left in contact with the juice during fermentation, a process called maceration which gives the wine the colour. Red wine grapes include Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Pinot Nior and Shiraz.Useful links: Wine at Wikipedia, Red Wine Grapes
