Is Pinot Noir Sweeter Than Cabernet Sauvignon?
Pinot Noir is generally not sweeter than Cabernet Sauvignon. While both types of wine can be made with varying levels of sweetness, Pinot Noir is known for its lighter body and delicate fruit flavors, which often include notes of cherry, raspberry, and strawberry. Cabernet Sauvignon, on the other hand, is typically richer and more full-bodied, with flavors of blackcurrant, black cherry, and vanilla. The sweetness of each wine depends on the specific winemaking style and the amount of residual sugar left in the wine after fermentation.
