Intro

Intro — But first, let’s talk overall numbers.

Cabernet Sauvignon wins the pennant as America’s favorite wine, with seven states ranking it first.

Riesling comes in a close second with six states; champagne and mulled wine tie for third with four states each.

(Lambrusco, Shiraz, Bordeaux, Moscato, Chardonnay, and Pinot Gris each got one vote as well.)
