“Wine, due to its composition, is a very complex drink, and the natural and human factors that influence its characteristics along with its biochemical composition make it a special and attractive product.

There are four known principle factors that influence the quality of wine: the earth, the grape variety, the climate, and man. These four factors determine the quality and the perfection of wine; when one is missing, the result, regardless of the influence of the other three, clearly lacks something.

It would be an exaggeration to affirm that wine is indispensable to life, but without doubt it can be stated that it is determinant in making it more agreeable. It is difficult to establish the determining characteristics of type and origin that make wine agreeable, since such an evaluation may be subjective. Nevertheless, it is clear that the quality of a wine constitutes the whole of the organoleptic characteristics, such as color, bouquet, flavor, that make it agreeable to the consumer and, at the same time, allow the consumer to determine its origin and type.”
