Old World Style

A phrase used to describe traditionally made wines. In general, Old World Style wines have lower alcohol levels, more acid, and less pronounced fruit when compared to the New World Style. Compatibility with food is another common attribute. Not surprisingly, most Old World Style wines are made in Europe.
