late harvest wine

Late harvest wine is made from grapes that are left on the vine longer than usual, allowing them to become overripe. This process concentrates the sugars and flavors in the grapes, often leading to a sweeter, more full-bodied wine. These wines are typically rich and aromatic, and they can have complex notes of honey, dried fruits, or spices. Due to their sweetness, late harvest wines are often enjoyed as dessert wines or paired with rich, savory dishes. They can be produced from various grape varieties, and the specific tastes depend on the type of grape and the region it’s grown in.
