VINOS INTERNACIONALES
There is no absolute standard to classify the different types of wines that exist. A form practiced by institutions such as Le Cordon Bleu, respects the denomination used in the Old World (Europe and Asia Minor, when it comes to wines), which lists the wines according to the region from which they come. The rationale for using this system is that the climate and type of soil where the vine has grown have the greatest contribution to the character of the drink. This system has come to have national legislation in several countries, where the term "appellation of origin" (D.O. in Spain, A.O.C. in France, DOCG in Italy, QmP in Germany, D.O.C. in Portugal) is mandatory to market the wines. Under the D.O. system, the types of grapes used in a wine become less important.
In the New World, preference is given to naming wines according to the type of grape that has been used. In the wine context, "New World" means everything that is not "Old World", that is, in addition to America, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa are included.1
The difference between the two types of classifications is that the New World, being less restricted by the European winemaking tradition, has preferred to market its wines as varietals. A varietal wine is one made with a single type of grape, or it is a mixture where there is one type of grape that predominates over the others (from 75 to 90%, depending on the country).
Below is a list, probably incomplete, of the types of wines that can be found, according to their origin.
