Introduction
Wine is an alcoholic beverage made by the fermentation of grapes or other fruit. Wine made from fruit other than grapes is now generally referred to as "Country Wine". Other fermented beverages which are not made with grain, honey, rice or fruit are often colloquially called "wines" as well. For example, palm wine is made by the natural fermentation of palm sap. In this sense, "wine" may be considered a catch-all term for any fermented beverage that cannot be classified as beer or mead.
