browning

I think this is it as defined in www.internetguide.com/.../abwine/word.ht.
BROWNING (see also MADERIZED, OXIDIZED, RIM). Denotes aging in a wine. Young wine color tints show no sign of such "browning". If possessed of good character and depth, a wine can still be very enjoyable even with a pronounced "brown" tint. In average wines this tint, seen along the wine surface edge in a tilted glass goblet, normally signals a wine is "past its peak", although still very drinkable.
