Hi, Samantha

Dry wine has less natural sugar and is higher in alcohol I think.

Some say a good red wine is best for health reasons.

As long as you enjoy in moderation that's the main thing.

Cheers,

Roy

Hi. You can't always tell by the wine type how dry it is but something like Pinot Grigio is quite dry but there are many others such as Chardonay, Sauvigon Blanc etc of the whites
