Ancient Fruit Wine Guide

Ancient Fruit Wine is the default endgame income engine because Ancient Fruit regrows weekly and matches Keg timing cleanly.

Quick answer

Ancient Fruit Wine sells for 1,650g, 2,310g with Artisan, and 4,620g as Iridium quality with Artisan. It is usually the best low-maintenance Greenhouse and Ginger Island Wine crop.

Best for

Players building a permanent Greenhouse, Ginger Island farm, or weekly Keg network.

Keg time is 7 days. Cask aging doubles normal Wine value at Iridium quality.

Best setup

Grow Ancient Fruit, run it through Kegs, take Artisan at Farming 10, and reserve Cask space for the bottles you want to age. Sell the rest as Artisan Wine to keep cash moving.

Common mistake

Do not wait to age every bottle. Casks are limited, so aging everything can slow cash flow. Use Casks for premium bottles and sell normal Artisan Wine regularly.
