Wie sagt man „Großer roter Wein“ auf Spanisch?

Hello, Markus,

How to say “Great red wine” in Spanish?

They say that neither in German nor in Spanish.

It’s called red wine or big red wine.

• vino = wine
• rojo = red
• ABER… it is called red wine and not red wine
• Red wine = vino tinto
• tinto = coloured

We Germans like to rewrite and therefore you can also express the following.

This wine has an intense red.

In red wine, a Spaniard never speaks of a red wine, no matter in what context, but also speaks of a colored wine. That is why the sentence would be as follows: Este vino tiene un tinto intenso.

Although the Spaniard is called a white wine (vino blanco), a red wine, however, is a coloured wine (vino tinto), it is likely that each red wine is a coloured wine. This is not different in here and now than 1,000 years ago. The result of the beginnings of a red wine was possibly not really red, but sometimes pink, sometimes reddish, but definitely always colored. Finally, this knowledge has emerged from a coincidence.

The background is as follows. Pressed grape juice is basically almost colourless, so clear. A reddish colouring is produced by a longer contact of the juice, with bowls of black grapes. The longer the contact, the more intense the coloring.

Good to you… and stay healthy.
