No, the example that you are providing is not "like" your earlier comment. Your example is a command or directive, and the "you" is only implied in certain situations (for example, if I am the only possible recipient of your statement). Your "larger point" comment is not a command or directive, and it is not clear if I am the only possible recipient of your comment.

And I apologize that you are seemingly unable to use the English language properly in order to convey your "larger point."

Back on point, knowledge of the "ins and outs" of the winemaking process or the wine industry is not necessary to appreciate whether a particular wine is "good" or "bad."
