Taste Chart: Wine Aromas

Cheap wines don't travel.

Answer<--

Acidity A wine's acidity is exceedingly important - in proper balance with other components (TANNINS, ALCOHOL, FRUIT, etc.), it contributes a lively, refreshing quality. When acidity is too high, a wine can become tart and biting, sharp on the palate; too low and wine tastes dull and flat -FLABBY. The appropriate acid level of a wine varies, with sweeter wines generally requiring somewhat higher acidity levels in order to retain the proper BALANCE.
