Please put any notes about wine relevant to T6 here. Also check the related links at the bottom of the page for information from T3-T5

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.
