I am planning to do my investigation about the red wine with different alcohol content? Is there any relationship between the alcohol content and the acidity of the red wine? Does the red wine with higher alcohol content have a higher acidity?

Igloo replies ...
There is no link between the alcohol content and the acidity of wines. The ethanol and various acids in the wine are totally independent components.
