How Do You Know a Wine is Good?
I ran across this article from Marshall Tilden at WineEnthusiast, and I really like how he explains the technical elements that determine a wine's flavor.
If you're new to wine, or interested in learning more about what you're tasting, check this out.
Is This Wine Any Good? The Five Most Important Structural Components to Know
Of course, now that you've learned some more about these structural components, you realize how tannins influence flavor over time and exposure to oxygen. It's the tannins in red wines that drive rapid flavor changes in open bottles of wine.

Enjoy your new knowledge, AND your better tasting wine!!
