varietal wine
Varietal wine is made primarily from a single type of grape that dominates the wine's character, such as Cabernet Sauvignon or Chardonnay. The name on the label reflects the main grape used, allowing drinkers to expect specific flavors and styles associated with that variety. While other grapes may be blended in, the focus remains on showcasing the unique qualities of the chosen varietal. This approach helps consumers identify wines they prefer based on grape type rather than just region or producer, providing transparency and a clearer connection to the wine's flavor profile.
