Sweet red wines are produced in many countries with various degrees of sweetness. Some sweet red wines are dark and viscous like sherry, while others are light and have a slight effervescence, like Lambrusco. They all contain various levels of residual sugar, which is the natural grape sugar left in wine after fermentation.
