Enjoying a good wine can be a challenge and journey for many, especially if you tend to favour a particular type of wine, be it the choice in the colour, bitterness, sweetness of even alcohol level, there sure is a number of elements and options to choose from when deciding what wine to have.

Before deciding however, you must generally understand what each of the different wines from different countries are aiming to do. Originally French wine was typically bitter and sharp but in recent times they have expanded their reach and have begun targeting the sweet tooth .On the other hand when American wine was imported into the United Kingdom it was typically sweet in nature.

These types of wines that originate from different countries now tend to share very similar characteristics and it takes a wine expert, also known as a connoisseur, to identify the different origins and locations where the wine was made from.
