Blend is a general term used for a wine made from more than one grape variety. Blending is the process of combining different wines with the goal of creating a composite that's better than any of the wines separately. The wines used for blending might be from different varieties (for instance, cabernet sauvignon merlot and cabernet franc), different regions (such as napa valley and paso robles), varying types of cooperage (some new barrels, some older barrels, barrels from different forests or coopers, etc.), and even different vintages (as in non-vintage champagne created by combining wines from different years).

IN BRIEF: To mix together to make a different substance.

One step in making ice cream is to blend sugar and milk.

Tutor's tip: "Bland" is flavorless, "blend" is to combine or intermingle, while "blende" is a kind of mineral.
