Dry red wine Strana 1 z 5

Dry red wine is among the most popular styles of red wine thanks to its structure, depth, and expressive character. It typically contains up to 4 g of residual sugar per litre (depending on the balance with acidity), allowing the natural fruit, tannins, and varietal elegance to shine.

Each sip may reveal notes of blackcurrant, cherry, plum, spice, or subtle vanilla, especially if the wine has been aged in oak barrels. The dry style fully expresses the terroir and the character of the winery.

Popular red wine varieties

In this category, you will find classic varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Dunaj, and Primitivo. Each offers a different combination of fruitiness, spice, and structure.

An excellent example of the Italian style is Piccini Costa Toscana Rosso, offering a harmonious expression with fine tannin structure. From Slovakia, Chateau Topoľčianky Vinohradnícky Výber Dunaj stands out with its full body and dark fruit profile.

Food pairing

Dry red wines are ideal partners for beef steaks, game, grilled meats, aged cheeses, or pasta with rich sauces. Their tannins and structure help balance the richness of the dishes.
