		Historically, wines have been known by names reflecting their origin, and sometimes style: Bordeaux, Rioja, Mosel and Chianti are all effectively trade names, reflecting the most popular wines produced by the named region.
		Wines may also be classified by vinification methods: sparkling, still, fortified, rosé, blush, etc. The colour of wine is determined by the presence or absence of the grape skin during fermentation, since most wine grapes have clear juice.
		Many wine writers have decried the trend, as it has pushed up prices to the point that few people will consider drinking such valuable commodities, and consequently they are kept in bottles undrunk where they eventually deteriorate into a substance very much like red wine vinegar in taste (and desirability).
