(54,407 posts)9. Brut is a term that designates a level of sweetness in a wine. There is no way to determine

Is Brut Champagne or Sparkling Wine?
Lets get this first question out of the way. Champagne and sparkling wine are indeed two distinct drinks, but its a fine line of distinction. While not all sparkling wine is Champagne, all Champagne is sparkling wine.
What Does Brut Mean in the World of Wine?
In short, brut is the French word for dry. Therefore, brut sparkling wine refers to a dry sparkling wine. Brut is also a term thats used to describe Champagne. However, when winemakers refer to brut wine, they are referring to the style of wine, rather than any particular variety.

The Difference Between Brut Champagne and Other Sparkling Wines
While brut champagne and other brut sparkling wines share a common dryness, there are some key differences between them. The most significant distinction is the region in which the grapes are grown and the wine is produced. As mentioned earlier, champagne can only be called as such if it is produced in the Champagne region of France. Additionally, the specific grape varieties used in brut champagne are usually chardonnay, pinot noir, and pinot meunier. Other sparkling wines may use different grape varieties, leading to unique flavor profiles. Furthermore, the production methods and regulations for making brut champagne are more stringent compared to other sparkling wines, often resulting in higher quality and more complex flavors.
When shopping for sparkling wine, or Champagne, you can pick one to suit your taste by checking the wine label for these terms:

Brut Nature or Brut Zero: The driest of the dry, this brut is highly acidic and intense.
Extra Brut: Another term for extra dry, its not quite as dry as brut nature, but still highly acidic.
Brut: With anywhere between 0-12 grams of sugar per liter, brut is dry but slightly less mouth-watering than brut nature or extra brut.
Extra Sec: A dry sparkling wine with hints of fruity sweetness.
Sec: A brut with more residual sugar yet still balanced by acidity.
Demi-Sec: A lovely and sweet brut with intense fruit flavors, such as apricots and lychee.
Doux: As sweet as you can get, this sparkling wine has more sugar than a can of Coke.

Mary Trump would have made a much better president than Donald.

(102,793 posts)8. Total opposite...
As president, for sure. She's actually very intelligent and has something of value to say. Not a family trait.
