The Greatest Song You Never Heard Wine Word of the Week – Tight

A wine that is “tightly knit,” or “tight,” is one that’s inexpressive or closed. The term usually refers to a young wine, and it can be applied to a wine’s aromas, flavors or structure. Being tight isn’t always a bad thing.

The Greatest Song You Never Heard serves up these songs note by note, beat by beat. Please visit https://www.thegreatestsongyouneverheard.com or listen where ever you get your podcasts.
