Default Dry Wine

I have made 3 batches of wine but for some reason It never seems to ferment
to dryness. Any Ideas?

Need more information such as:

What type of wine are you making?
Are you making from a kit or raw ingredients?
What is your initial Brix or SG?
What is your initial pH or TA?
Are you using any yeast nutrient such as Fermaid?

Hi: I would guess that you are starting with too much sugar. If you begin
with no more th;an 22%, you should have dry wine.
