ACIDULOUS
A very young wine with a high level of acidity.
ACRID
This term refers to a wine that is unpleasant. It tastes rough and/or tart.
Acidulous: A term denoting excessive total acidity. The threshold for acidulousness is undefined, but certainly a wine with a pH less than 3.1 or a titratable acidity more than 0.9% will taste sour and acidulous.
The flesh has a varietal, neutral flavour which is slightly meaty and sweet-acidulous-astringent. Each grape has two or three average-sized, pear-shaped seeds. This very vigorous vine produces an abundant yield.
