In Canada, the wine industry measures wine sweetness as grams of sucrose in 100 grams of grape juice or grape must at 20 °C in degrees Brix. In
Ripeness in viticulture weight from the juice of a single grape or they can use a hydrometer in the winery with the juice from several dozen or hundreds of grape berries.
