foodie#WineWednesday: What "dry" actually means 🍷
It's about sugar, not texture.
Yeast eats sugar → makes alcohol.
All sugar gone = dry.
Some left = off-dry, semi-sweet, sweet.
The confusion: "Dry" often means tannic — that mouth-drying feel. But tannin ≠ dryness.
Think you don't like dry wine? Try a fruit-forward dry white first.
