The new executive editor of JamesSuckling.com, Jim Gordon, has his own unique take on what he thinks makes an outstanding wine. "When I'm reviewing ... I sit and sniff and sip and write down what I'm sensing, and then that's when I go through the parts," Jim said. "I'm talking about what are the aromas, the flavors, the acid, the tannin, the overall balance, alcohol, body. And those things confirm the quality, but it's only when they're all working together that you get this sort of magic of a great wine."
