It is directly related to the amount of grape skin used in the the crushing process. The more skin, the darker the color.

Red wine is made as follows:
1) Press the grapes
2) Take the whole mess (juice, skins, seeds, even stems!) and put it into barrels to ferment.
3) The wine will turn red from contact with the skins, seeds, and stems.
Ever tried a "Blanc de Noirs" sparkling wine? It's white, but it's actually made from red grapes; the juice from red grapes is really clear!

From the grapes they use to make the wine. The color is in the skin of the grape so has to be extracted in the process of pressing.

By crushing the red grape and letting the juice mix with the skins for an extended period of time.

Tannins, chemicals found in the grapes that make the wine.
