PEMBROKE PARK, Fla. — It’s National Wine and Cheese Day, and we’re raising a glass to one of the biggest debates among wine lovers: Which wine is your favorite?

Whether you prefer a bold red, a crisp white or a refreshing rosé, each variety offers something different.

The primary differences come down to the types of grapes used and how long the grape skins remain in contact with the juice during fermentation. Those differences influence each wine’s color, flavor and body.

Wine is also often paired with different foods. Red wines typically complement heartier dishes, while white and rosé wines are commonly served with lighter fare such as seafood, salads and poultry.

When it comes to preferences, red wine remains the top choice for many Americans. According to Wine Business, nearly half of U.S. wine drinkers — about 49% — say red is their favorite. White wine follows at 36%, while rosé accounts for about 6% of preferences.

Of course, some wine enthusiasts prefer sparkling wines or Champagne for any occasion, proving there’s no wrong answer when it comes to what’s in your glass.

So, where do you stand? Are you reaching for a glass of red, white or rosé?
