Dessert wine is a type of sweet wine typically served with or after a meal. It is made from grapes that have a high sugar content, which can be achieved through various methods such as late harvesting, drying, or using noble rot. Common varieties of dessert wine include Sauternes, Tokaji, and Moscato, each offering unique flavors and aromas. These wines are often enjoyed in smaller servings due to their sweetness and richness. They can complement a variety of desserts, cheeses, or even be enjoyed on their own. Dessert wines are usually higher in alcohol content than regular wines, enhancing their flavor profile.
