Der Textauszug von Axel ist interessant, wobei in diesem Fall ja niemand das "easy to drink" als negatives Kriterium gesehen hat. Das ist vielleicht ähnlich wie beim "süffig", der Begriff wird sicher auch manchmal in gewisser Weise abwertend verwendet, ist aber ein gängiger Begriff der Weinansprache - hier ein Buchauszug: https://books.google.de/books?id=Mcv3GEBafXIC&pg=PA157&lpg=P...

English term (edited): super-easy drinking on the palate

am Gaumen sehr leicht

So kann sich ein Weißwein am Gaumen sehr leicht und knackig-frisch anfühlen, während ein Rotwein mit wuchtiger Fleischigkeit daherkommt.

'Easy to drink' isn't an insult when it comes to wines

'So what does "easy to drink" mean, exactly?

"Easy to drink" is not a flavor description; it's more tactile. These wines don't scream for attention, or tire out the palate, because they're balanced. You shouldn't notice the alcohol, acidity or sweetness because none is overpowering. If it's a red wine, it's essential that its tannins are smooth. How can these qualities be bad?

Here's what "easy to drink" doesn't mean: simple or cheap. An easy to drink wine might be inexpensive, or it might be a $500 first-growth Bordeaux. And although some easy-to-drink wines have straightforward flavors, the best are also the most complex and fascinating wines in the world -- because no truly great wine, at its peak, is actually difficult to drink.
