Wines are typically labeled in one of 3 ways:
• By Grape Variety (e.g. Cabernet Sauvignon or Riesling)
• By Region (popular in France, Italy, and parts of Spain)
• By Made-Up Name (often used for proprietary blends)
Grape Variety Labeling or "Varietal" Wines
Even though nearly all wine is from just one species (Vitis vinifera), there are thousands of different grape varieties (also called cultivars). Fortunately, if you're new to wine, there are only about 100 common varieties planted throughout the world.

Regional Wine Labeling
Wines like Bordeaux, Champagne, Chianti and Rioja are all named after the region in which they're from!
Each wine region dictates what grapes can be used in the regional wine. So, in order to know what’s inside one of these regionally labeled wines, you’ll want to do a little research. For example, Chablis in France grows Chardonnay, and Chianti in Italy specializes in Sangiovese.

Wines Labeled by Made-Up Name
More often than not, named wines are unique blends invented by the wine producer. You’ll also find named wines common in regions that do not allow the use of certain grapes in their regional wine (but still grow them).
Named wines are often blends or unusual wines that don’t fit the wine laws of a particular region. In most cases, you’ll find the unique details about the wine on the winery’s website.
