Those there tested it and found it tasted like wine. Wine normally takes a
while to form. Thus, an appearance of age was present.
No extra features recording a history of the wine were noted by those
present. Even if some had been saved as a souvenir, I don't think there
are any tests that could remaining detect traces of history (given the lack
of comparative material). Thus, any false history is not apparent.
