SPARKLING WINES
Champagne is a sparkling wine, but it must come from the Champagne region of France, to be called Champagne. The bubbles are formed during a second fermentation process, sealing in the carbon dioxide that is formed when yeast converts sugar into alcohol, making millions of bubbles with no place to go. |

PORT WINES
Port wine is typically richer, sweeter, heavier, and possess a higher alcohol content than most other wines. Commonly served after meals as a dessert wine, often with cheese. White and tawny ports are often served as an apéritif. |
