Hey everyone!
I started my new job as a waiter and I don’t want to ask my colleagues all the time. So we have 19 types of wines (red, white and rose). However, the clients keep asking different things regarding our wines like “I want something not too dry” I get so confused, isn’t wine liquid? How could it be dry? How do I know when it’s a dry/fruity/sweet wine? Is there anything on the label to make it easier to identify?
I’d like to know the major differences between dry, sweet, body, etc. I was looking up on Google, but all articles sound way smarter than I can actually comprehend.

Wine is categorized first by the kind of grape used to make it, and second by the region where the grape was grown. The region will influence the characteristics of the grape and may also influence the method used in processing the grape into wine.
The terms in wine tasting (dry, sweet, etc.) all have definitions that you can look up in the context of wine or wine making that will help you to understand how and when those terms are applied. ‘Dry’, for example, means not sweet. Full-bodied means it feels more viscous in your mouth than other wines.
