Inside Text: From the Vine... The substance in wine that furs up your gums and makes them feel rough and dry is tannin. It is derived from the skins, pips, and stalks of the grapes, so is usually only found in red wines. Red wine needs tannin if it is to age well in the bottle, so young reds intended for ageing can be high in tannin. It softens with age
