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.

A good resource that is easy and fun to read, good for both beginner and intermediate level, is the Windows on the World wine course book by Kevin Zraly. He was the sommelier at the Windows on the World restaurant at the top of the World Trade Center before 9/11. He ran a well-known wine course and the book is an extension of that. Makes learning about wine very approachable. I have been enjoying wine for over twenty years and still come back to this book every few months to do some research and dig into something new.
