Notes

  1. I got both Mushrooms and Roses on a v1 single yard bottle. Two flavors from one vintage? Or is Mushrooms actually 0? Also, my spouse only got the Roses, so Mushrooms may require a higher palate. --Shebi 22:28, 27 February 2009 (EST)
  2. I got Freshness with Bell Pepper (0) and Green Olives (1) in a v3 wine all in the top glass. A neighboring vineyard gave Vegetables/Freshness/Eucalyptus, so they may be the same, or there may be another veggie still out there. --Shebi 22:46, 27 February 2009 (EST)
  3. I got Vegetables -> Freshness -> Mint (wine was one vintage old, but could be v0 or v1) -- merek

Reading The Flavor Chart

Vintage indicates how old the wine was when the flavor first appeared in the wine.

  • If a wine contains flavors that have not developed at the wine's current vintage age, those flavors will not be detectable when the wine is tasted.
  • If no flavors are detectable, a wine will report as Thin and not give tasting checks for quality.
  • As the wine ages and flavors come in, the wine will stop being Thin.

Note: It is the age on the Secondary Taste that brings the flavor in, not the Taste Category or Primary Taste.

For example:

  • Bell Pepper (0) and Green Beans (1) are both Vegetable/Freshness flavors.
  • If a wine only has the Green Beans flavor in it, it will report as Thin until it is 1 vintage old (not giving the Vegetable or Freshness flavors).
  • Bell Pepper, on the other hand, will show Vegetable, Freshness, and Bell Pepper flavors on different glasses starting at 0 vintages old.
