[TR] The character has experience with wines in the making and assessing of their quality. The business of wine-making requires an upfront investment of 12 crowns per acre of vines, this includes the investments in barrels, presses etc. Each year a further 1 crown is required to be invested in the upkeep of the equipment.

The basic income from this is calculated from the wine produced not from the value of the grape crop; however, the grape harvest does affect the wine quality. This is up to the game master to make a call on the quality of the harvest and assign appropriate modifiers from the table Agricultural Harvest Modifiers to be applied to the character’s skill roll. Compare his skill roll result to the table Wine making Results to give the vintage of the wine and the likely income that can be generated from it.

To compute the wine quantity assume that the wine price is that charged at the inn (as per Marketplace prices), multiply the quantity of wine x number of acres in the vineyard to find how much wine you have produced.
