blending wine

Also called cutting wine, a blending wine is added, in small quantities, to other wines to enhance them or to correct deficiencies in them. For example, wines with high alcoholic content are often added to wines with low alcoholic content, and wines with dark color, to those lacking color. In France a blending wine is called a coupage.
