How many types of wines are produced all over the world?

There is an endless variety of wines. Wines of all types can be classified by either the primary grape variety or the region where the grapes are grown. Even within types of wines, there is a great variety of flavour and texture because the climate varies in different regions. The two major categories are red and white. The red colour in red wine is due to the fact that grapes’ skin is allowed to ferment. If the skin is taken out, it results in white wine. There are other categories of wine like sparkling wines (champagne), ice wine, port-fortified wine, rose or blush wine, and sherry.
