What are Fine Wines?
Fine Wines are those wines you would find in any restaurant around the world. Vinifera wines are commonly known as varietals like Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, and Riesling. Common Hybrids are Traminette, Seyval Blanc, and Chambourcin that produce well structured wines.
