A sweet white wine is a type of wine made from grapes that have a high residual sugar content, resulting in a sweeter taste. Sweet white wines are typically enjoyed on their own or with light desserts, fruit-based dishes, or spicy foods. Some of the most popular types of sweet white wines include Moscato dAsti, Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Chenin Blanc, Viognier, Sauternes, and Ice Wine. The sweetness of white wine can vary greatly depending on the grape, and some sweet white wines have higher acidity, such as Gewürztraminer, which tends to have a more balanced taste. The sweetness of a wine is determined by how much sugar is left in the wine after the fermentation process.
