Context and limitations
The diagram is temporal metaphor, not measured response. Vouvray sugar allowance is unverified law. A cidery note described as stylistic does not excuse every oxidized or faulty sample; bottle aging is not whiskey marrying.

Retain the source's personal and wine-specific context. Do not turn the observation into a fixed whiskey property, a tested blend formula or an unsourced causal claim.
