English term or phrase: structure
Definition from thewinedoctor.com:
A tasting term. When a wine is described as having structure, the taster is referring to the tannin and acidity levels. These elements give the wine a presence in the mouth; without them wine would tend towards a flabby, fruit flavoured drink.

Example sentence(s):
  • Tannins originate from the skins of the fruit, the stems and, to a much lesser extent, oak of the barrels. They impart a ‘puckery’, astringent or sometimes bitter sensation to the wine. They also contribute to the structure and body of the wine. redwinebuzz.com
  • A better wine, then, isn’t bitter. Essentially, the tannins provide the structure for the wine to age, but a good, aged wine’s flavor isn’t overwhelmed by tannins. AgroTropical Spain
  • Pretty much all wine, irrespective of how its made, where its made or what grapes its made with, has certain things in common – it has fruit flavourings, it has acid, it has alcohol and, if is red, it has tannin. That’s it, that’s structure: Fruit, acid alcohol and Tannin. When people talk about structure they are talking about the interplay of these three things. Wine guide

Definition from own experience or research:
A fenti példamondatokban a "structure" borok savösszetételét (savszerkezet) írja le: a savasságot adó almasav, borkősav stb. valamint a csersavak (tanninok) arányát.
A bor "szerkezetéhez" az egyéb anyagok, pl. ásványi anyagok is hozzájárulnak (lásd a példamondatot)

Example sentence(s):
  • Ezekből a dűlőkből származó borokat erős mineralitás és sajátos savszerkezet jellemzi, ez megadja a bor, vázát, szerkezetét, ami megismételhetetlenné teszi. - borportal.hu

Notes to answerer
Ana Costa As far as I know, without further context, "con" means a "convicted person"... but would need more context to be sure.
