Top picks of 10 exceptional wines from different regions

For a wine to be good, it has to be a perfect balance of acidity, tannin, alcohol and sweetness. Each contributes vitally to the wine’s profile, and must be in perfect proportion to each other.

Acidity determines a wine’s sharpness. Tannin determines how bitter and dry a wine is. Too much alcohol might burn the throat, and a wine that’s too sweet means it contains too much residual sugar.

A good wine has achieved great balance between its hard elements (acidity, tannin) and soft elements (alcohol, sweetness).
