Light Bodied

A light-bodied wine is characterized by a delicate, smooth texture and lower alcohol content. It typically feels lighter on the palate and is more refreshing compared to full-bodied wines. The flavor profile is often dominated by bright, fresh fruit notes such as citrus, red berries, and green apple, with subtle floral or herbal undertones. Light-bodied wines usually have lower tannin levels and higher acidity, making them crisp and easy to drink. Examples include Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc, and Pinot Grigio. These wines pair well with lighter dishes like salads, seafood, or fresh cheeses.
