Body: The impression of weight, fullness or thickness on the palate; usually the result of a combination of alcohol, sugar, dissolved solids (including sugars, phenolics, minerals and acids) and, to a lesser extent, glycerin. Common descriptors include light-bodied, medium-bodied and full-bodied. For example, skim milk could be considered "light-bodied," whole milk "medium-bodied" and cream "full-bodied." Although a fuller-bodied wine makes a bigger impression in the mouth, it is not necessarily higher in quality than a lighter-bodied wine.

酒体：是一种味觉感受，指葡萄酒的重量，饱满度或厚度；通常是酒精，糖份，可溶性固体（包括糖类，酚类，矿物质和酸类物质）以及在较小程度上甘油相组合的结果。常见的描述包括轻酒体，中等酒体和重酒体。例如，脱脂牛奶可认为是“light-bodied”，全脂牛奶是“medium-bodied”，奶油则是“full-bodied”。尽管酒体越重味觉感受越强烈，但这并不意味着它的品质越高。
