Anyways, here are “vintage” examples from the media:
1. Roger Federer gave US Open fans a “vintage performance” today after his recent slip from divine to merely fine tennis, Bonnie Ford writes on ESPN. “I had moments out there where I really felt, ‘This is how I normally play on hard court',” Federer said after beating Novak Djokovic 6-3, 5-7, 7-5, 6-2 in the semifinal. “So it was a very nice feeling, actually, to get that feeling back.”
2. A “Vintage Date” is shown on many bottles of wine. The vintage date indicates the year in which the grapes were harvested.
The one exception is for very late harvested wines in Europe such as ‘eiswein' (or ‘icewine' in Canada). Even though the harvest of the grapes may extend past January 1st, the wine still carries the vintage year of the year in which the grapes were grown.
In the Northern Hemisphere, grapes are usually harvested between August through October (depending on the grape variety and local climate). Grapes harvested in October of 2003 will carry the 2003 vintage date even though the finished wine may not be released until 2004 (or even 2005 for many red wines).
In the Southern Hemisphere, grapes are harvested from February though April. Wines made from grapes harvested in March of 2003 will carry the 2003 vintage date no matter when the finished wines are released.
Regulations in the United States require that 95 percent of the grapes used to make a wine must come from the harvest in the labeled vintage year. Many countries have similar regulations to allow winemakers a little leeway but still maintain the integrity of the vintage date.
