Red wine update: yep, it's the tannins.

I had a feeling that's what it was. Not being a huge fan of tannic wines, I'd been pessimistically suspecting that was probably where the major health benefits come from.
But I can adapt. It will be a bit more of a challenge to locate a bottle made from Tannat grapes from the Gers region of France or the Nuoro province of Sardinia than a bottle of pinot from upstate New York, but I like a wine-shopping challenge, and once I locate some, maybe it will be an excuse to buy a case.
