I've had a couple of hybrid reds called Baco Noir and Chambourcin
which are not tannic at all. Their acid levels tend to vary with the
vintage and grower, and because these are from hybrid grapes, they're
not always easy to find. I don't know where you live, but see if there
are any local wineries in your area that produce either of these
varietals.
