Wine colors – a chart
Wine Colors provided by Wine Folly
Wine Folly has a great color chart with an overview of the main wine colors, as you can see below. It is very common to describe a wine using color, and wine people have their own terminology, like pale amber or deep ruby. This chart also mentions the types of wine usually tied to the different colors: Nebbiolo is usually described as pale garnet and Chardonnay as deep gold.
Anyway, enjoy!
