What does 94 or 95 in red wine mean? .

94 and 95 refer to the year when the grapes were picked, not the year when this bottle of wine was bottled. For example, a bottle of wine is marked with Chateau Lafite Rothschild 1982, indicating that the grape picking year of this bottle of wine is1982. But bottling will be delayed by 2-3 years, that is, 84 years, 85 years, or even longer.

Tree age refers to the growth age of vines. Generally speaking, the grapes of old trees are more balanced than those of young vines (annual output and taste), and the grapes produced are juicy and full, especially those that are 100 years old. The world-famous Botus red wine is made from a century-old grape vine.

Good red wine needs a good year. Generally speaking, the most traditional red wine comes from France, and the "good year" discussed by everyone is aimed at the red wine produced in the famous Bordeaux region of France. The definition of "good years" means that the weather in those years is very suitable for grape planting. In these places with long days and short nights, small temperature difference and little rain, the quality of red wine brewed with grapes is better. As for the price, it depends on the quantity and place of origin. The "good years" of red wine are 1982, 1985 ~ 1986, 1990, 1996, 2000, 200 1 ~2003 respectively.
