Wine types – discover the fascinating diversity of wine 🍷🥂

Wine is much more than just red or white – the world of wine types offers an exciting variety for every taste and occasion. From fresh rosé wines and elegant sparkling wines to strong orange or dessert wines – each type of wine has its own character, production style and perfect food pairings.

🔹 Rosé wines – Fruity, fresh and summery, ideal with light dishes or as an aperitif.
🔹 Sparkling wines – From champagne to prosecco to crémant – sparkling enjoyment for special moments.
🔹 Orange Wines – Traditionally produced, complex and rich in tannins, perfect for connoisseurs who like to experiment.
🔹 Dessert wines – Sweet, noble and often matured – a perfect accompaniment to cheese and desserts.
🔹 Natural wines & amphora wines – Unfiltered, minimalistically produced and with an exciting terroir character.

Whether for festive occasions, relaxed summer evenings or an extraordinary flavour experience – wine types offer endless possibilities. Discover the fascinating variety and find the perfect wine for every moment! 🍾✨
