Certain words are used to describe various wines, and one of these words is "dry." These words are very inexact, and subjective. A gourmet will take a small taste of a wine, and 'roll' it around on his tongue or perhaps the top of his throat - and if it has a somewhat "dry" or tart taste, he will pronounce it dry. Dry wines go well with most foods, and are in contrast to "sweet" or "fruity" wine (which seem to overpower the taste of a particular food).
