neutral  Roy vd Heijden: Bestaat er zoiets als 'onharmonieus zacht'?

verleidelijk zacht


Explanation:
Suave = douceur + irrésistibilité:

« Un vin (...) est (...) suave, quand il produit une impression douce et dégage un charme irrésistible »
(http://www.cnrtl.fr/definition/suave)

"Château Paveil de Luze is een zeer fraaie Margaux die in zijn jeugd reeds verleidelijk zacht en rond van smaak is."
(http://www.intercaves.nl/product/T1030/C1170/08600.htm)

"De wijn is verleidelijk zacht met mooie sensuele afdronk."

zacht


Explanation:
Als men over wijnen spreekt, spreekt men van "zachte" wijnen (op vlak van smaak). Dus eenvoudigweg: "zacht"
