Ready means a recoverable source and precise supplied-PDF locator. No direct quotation is being authenticated here. Limits: Counted appellations and required ages/proportions are dated. PDF200 says Slovenian oak; do not silently reinterpret wood origin. Pinot Grigio's designation as one 'Italian clone' is oversimplified source language, not a verified genetic identification. Ripasso is refermentation, not whiskey finishing.
