"Vin rouge" is a French equivalent of "red wine."

Specifically, the masculine noun "vin" means "wine." Its singular definite article is "le" ("the"). Its singular indefinite article is "un" ("a, one"). The masculine/feminine adjective "rouge" means "red."

The pronunciation is "veh roozh."

The Loire is a region of France that produces wine. Many varieties of both red and white wines are produced there. The variety of the white wine 'Muscadet' is produced more than any other wine in the region and is almost unique to this area. However, it is not known as 'Loire'. To my knowledge there is no such variety of wine, just the regionn

French wines are named mostly after the region or place they are grown in, like Sancerre or Bergerac (having both red and white wines). French wines are not usually named after the grapes (like Sauvignon or Pinot noir)

There are both red and white grenache grapes, so it could be either. Grenache noir is used for red wines. Grenache blanc is used for white grenache wines.

What is value of gift box of chenin blanc rose and french colombard 1978?

It is unlikely that either of the wines has any intrinsic value, in other words they are probably undrinkable. Although chenin blanc ages well I suspect this doesn't apply to chenin rose (which must have red variety in it as well.There may be some sort of interest as historical artifacts. If you own these I suggest you get a couple of wine loving friends around and drink the wine. have a couple of more recent wines on hand in the event (very likely) that you are disappointed. They may be quite interesting, but I doubt if anyone would pay any serious money for them. Cheers

What white wine goes with stuffed chicken?

This is a highly debated question. There are too many conflicting ingredients and flavours in the Risotto al Funghi for people to reach an agreement over which wines will pair with the meal.I recommend trying an Italian white wine with your meal. Otherwise I believe an Alsace Pinot Blanc or White Rioja will work very well with the dish.

What wines is the region of Umbria Italy best known for?

* Orvietto :White wine made in two styles - secco : dry and crips, refreshing (those who enjoy Pinot Grigio, Muscadet, and Sauvignon Blanc will enjoy this style) & abboccato: semi dry. Abboccato Orvietto is produced from grapes that have been affected by muffa nobile aka noble rot (those who enjoy Chenin Blanc may like this style). Both styles of Orvietto are light straw colerd white wines. The best (premium) Orvietto will be labeled Orvietto Classico and is well worth the additional few dollars for its weight of viscosicty. * Rubesco (red wine) * Rubesco Riserva - (red wine) The word riserva carries no aging requirements but this wine must be the wine maker's best. Notes: * The region of Umbria has a temperate climate * rolling hills * Tiber River aka Tevere River * Well drained soils suitable to growing white wines

Does it take longer to make red wine or to make white wine?

The fermentation stage of white wine takes longer, from 2 to 3 weeks, whereas red wine needs only 4 to 10 days. Maturation of red wines takes much longer however, except for young red wines such as Beaujolais nouveau (new), so most white wine is ready for consumption before red wine.Red wine also requires more or longer stages, such as clarification.Most white wines are made from green grapes, and are frequently called blanc de blanc (white of white,) especially for sparkling wines, as opposed to the white wine that is made from red grapes, such as Champagne and some other white wines.The trick for such wines is to press the whole grapes, but immediately filter out the grape juice from the skins, the seeds and the woody parts.As a result, the only tannin present in white wine comes from the maturation phase in the oak barrels, not from the grapes themselves, and the lesser tannin content means that white wine will not keep as long as red wine.The only exception is sweet white wines such as Sauternes, for which the sugar acts as a preserving agent.The color of white wine does not come so much from aging as from how much the grapes were exposed to air during pressing. The more oxygen in the juice, the yellower the wine.
