If you want to avoid the headaches, avoid the tannins. Wine gets tannins from the skin and from maturing in wood.
So for whites avoid wood matured. For reds its a bit harder as skin is an integral part of the wine. So stick to lighter reds like merlots and pinots.
Also, the tannins put in histermines so if you have synis issues, it make it a lot worse. Ask my Mrs!
Me, I love the heavy ones, Shiraz, grenache, etc.
No such thing as too much.....and its good for the ticker!
