3 - Wine Terms - Bubbly Sweetness
1.
Sec or Dry:
1.7-3.5% RS (residual sugar) perceptibly sweet despite the name.
2.
Extra Dry:
1.2-1.7% RS still slightly sweet regardless of the description and above the sweetness threshold of most people of 1%
3.
Brut:
0-1.2% RS maybe a touch of of sweet at the upper end, if you want more dryness, look for
Extra Brut
or
Brut Nature
which is bone dry.
Geek Zone:
if you want a "sweet" wine, look for
Demi-Sec
or
Doux
, great to pour over your desserts.
