Grape Files in Vino

Purpose of Grape Notes

Grape notes in Vino are specifically for documenting different wine grapes. To manage synonyms effectively and avoid clutter, it's recommended to use Org Roam aliases.

Requirements for Grape Notes

The primary requirement for a grape note is the inclusion of a grape tag alongside a wine tag. Other than this, there are no specific restrictions.

Example of a Grape File

Here's an example of a grape file format:

This example illustrates the typical structure of a grape file in Vino. It starts with a properties section including a unique ID and aliases, followed by the title and tags. The body of the file provides detailed information about the grape variety, including its flavour profile, taste characteristics, and handling recommendations. Everything except for ID and tags is optional from Vino point of view.
