Yeah exactly, all the varietals and vintage and flavor descriptions are basically just ways of narrowing the window to help you find something you might like.
For example, I tend to like wines with medium tannins and oak flavor, deep plum and tobacco notes. If there's spice flavors or not I'm also fine. I find I usually can find what I want in Chilean Cabs, and have less luck with other wines.
However, I've liked other kinds of wines too. Where I live the local Cabs are generally terrible, but the local Chambourcins, which have few of the qualities I generally look for, are good drinks too.
