The term Brut is commonly associated with sparkling wines, particularly Champagne, and refers to the level of sweetness or sweetness-dryness balance in the wine. In the context of sparkling wines, including Champagne, the term "brut" indicates that the wine is dry, meaning it has minimal residual sugar.

1. Brut Nature (or Brut Zero) - Extremely dry, with little to no added sugar.

2. **Extra Brut:** Very dry, with minimal sweetness.

3. **Brut:** Dry, with a small amount of residual sugar, but still considered a dry wine.

4. **Extra Dry (or Extra Sec):** Off-dry, with a bit more sweetness than Brut.

5. **Sec:** Medium-dry, with a noticeable level of sweetness.

6. **Demi-Sec:** Semi-sweet, with a higher level of residual sugar.

7. **Doux:** Sweet, with a significant amount of residual sugar.

It's important to note that while "brut" is associated with dryness in the context of sparkling wines, the exact amount of residual sugar can vary slightly between different winemakers and regions.
