# Vintages

Vintages represent specific production years in Claret. They are primarily used in wine and agricultural operations to track when products were produced, enabling vintage-specific planning and inventory management.

{% hint style="info" %}
When a new tenant is created in Claret, a set of default vintages is automatically set up. These include the current year plus five years before and after (11 vintages total). For example, if your tenant was created in 2024, vintages from 2019 to 2029 would be pre-configured.
{% endhint %}
