OK, I understand dry wine is ok, but I have a very limited knowledge of wines. Which one's are dry and allowed on scd? I've looked on the scd sight and all over the net but can't find anything besides an elementary explanation of the sugar connection to wine in general.

Thank you!!!!!!!

I'm sorry, snappy. I'm no wine expert either. I did a quick google search and found out dry wines have "less than 1.4% or so residual sugar", whatever that means! The site also listed a few names of dry red wines as: Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Merlot and Pinot Noir. Shows what I know. I would have guessed a couple of those to lean to the sweeter end of things.

I have a friend who is very knowledgeable about wines. I once asked her for a recommendation on a good dry red wine and she said Cabernet Sauvignon.

Maybe call or go to a store that specializes in wines and ask them what they would recommend! Cheers! yeah

Thank you! I finally found some info and it listed the same ones you listed. I also learned that most wines are considered dry and that the sweet wines are usually in a seperate area.

Will pick up the cabernet sauvignon! so many things to not be able to eat that it makes me really happy to find something new to eat or drink!
