The world of wine allows for many different opinions that will be generally one sided. There are many times when a professional wine taster will grade a wine in bad taste or with a different deciding factor that does not really affect the quality of the beverage. Normal wine consumers will find the wine satisfying and very affordable.
Many times the flavor of the wine is a major deciding factor of classification of the wine. Obviously, more expensive wines have a more sophisticated flavor that will leave the palate very satisfied. Other times, small changes in flavor are determined by the process in which the wine is aged. Many times, aging in something other than a glass bottle will add different flavors to the wine.
Aging allows for the wine to ferment and produce alcohols. The longer a wine ages, the better for the overall flavor and strength. Wine that is very old will tend to have a very distinct flavor that may be unique, even from bottle to bottle of wine. Inexpensive wines are not aged as long and sometimes you may even over age wines.
When wine is aged in bottles, many of the original components are contained in the wine. The alcohol levels will stop at some point when there are no more sugars available for the fermentation process to continue. This makes for a somewhat balanced wine that most people enjoy.
Aging in wooden barrels may change this process in many different ways. The wood offers extra complex sugars that the fomenters have available to continue to ferment. This allows for the strength of the wine to increase over time as well as adding a distinct flavor that the wood provides in the wine infusion. Many times wine will be produced in different qualities of wood allowing for variation between wines produced with the same grapes.
Additives and additional ingredients may be added to the wine to help it ferment better or to add a flavor or aroma. These additives can change the flavor, aroma and quality of the wine and should be done carefully. Centuries of experimentation has brought the current wines into existence today.

The world loves wine. Wine producers have been producing wine the same way for centuries. Sometimes a little change can alter the history of wine producing and can change the classification of wine.
