It is a quality often associated with fine wines and is considered an important factor in wine evaluation, though it is inherently subjective.<ref>Robinson (ed.), ''The Oxford Companion to Wine'', Oxford University Press, 2015.</ref> == Background == The concept of complexity has been central to wine appreciation since antiquit...") | ||||
