Has white wine got less alcohol in it?

It's a common misconception that white wine automatically has less alcohol than red wine.

The alcohol content of wine is determined by the grape variety, the winemaking process, and the specific producer.

* Grape Variety: Some grapes naturally produce more sugar, which is fermented into alcohol.

* Winemaking Process: Techniques like adding sugar or stopping fermentation at different points can influence the final alcohol content.

* Producer: Different wineries may choose to produce wines with different alcohol levels, depending on their style and target market.

Therefore, you can find both high and low-alcohol white and red wines.

It's essential to check the alcohol content on the label to know the exact percentage.
