I went to wikipedia and searched the topic wine. What came up on the English wikipedia site was pages and pages about the history of wine, grape varieties, classifications, vintages, tasting, collecting, production and so on. On the simple wikipedia site the information that came up was general information about wine. It talked about the 2 varieties of grapes: red and white. It talked briefly about the history of wine and what countries drink and make the most wine.
On the Britannica online encyclopedia site because wine is such a general topic, a did you mean list popped up. Under the did you mean list were the topics: wine, Bordeaux wine, burgundy wine, fruit wine, dessert wine, and malt wine. I went to the category wine and the information that came up included history, the wine grape, wine regions and varieties, wine making process, aging and bottling, and special wines.
I found that both the english wikipedia and britannica article were very similar. Both gave a lot of information about the history of wine and of the different varities.
I really liked using simple wikipedia and I know for a fact that my kids will also enjoy it better than the English wikipedia site. It is definitely more kid friendly.
