How to choose the right wine for every occasion

Choosing a good wine is entirely subjective. The way each person defines a good wine is unique to them and their taste buds. Whether you prefer delicate, strong, sweet, sour or even spicy flavours, you can find the ideal wine. The characteristics that define each wine variety, however, can be useful to keep in mind when choosing a bottle, especially at an important event. The main factors to consider are:

• sweetness: wine labels often use the terms ‘sweet’, ‘semi-sweet’ or ‘dry’. A dry wine, for example, is not sweet. Each is more or less suitable for certain dishes
• acidity: wines with high acidity are more sour, while those with low acidity have a rounder or richer flavour
• body: wines are characterised as having a light body, a full body or somewhere in between. Wine body refers to the feeling of heaviness or lightness in the mouth after a sip. Generally, red wines have more body than white wines, as do wines made from grapes grown in warmer rather than cooler regions
• the alcohol content: the higher the percentage of alcohol in the glass of wine, the more it warms the throat and the back of the mouth
