The year in which the grapes were harvested.
En Profundidad
Vintage matters most in regions with variable climates — Burgundy, Bordeaux, and the Mosel see significant quality differences between years. In consistent climates (Napa, Barossa), vintage variation is less dramatic. Non-vintage (NV) wines blend multiple years for consistency, most famously in Champagne. Vintage charts rate year quality for each region.
