Tannin: A compound in the skin and seeds of grapes that is essential in providing substance and backbone to red wines.*

VQA: VQA=100% BC - All British Columbia wines bearing the VQA symbol must be made from 100% BC grown grapes. The wines are screened by a professional tasting panel and wines found faulty cannot be sold as VQA wines.
