EEBO only has this in lists of wine names and editions of ME works; people might be able to find something if they elect to comb through 16th-century records, but this doesn't look promising. Hazarasp (parlement · werkis) 11:40, 28 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

I think I've managed to cite this as a {{lb|en|historical}} rather than {{lb|en|obsolete}} term, from one work of historical fiction, one historian discussing a scene in John Gower's works, and another work about the middle ages (but not, AFAICT, about Gower) : Citations:vernage. Along the way I also spotted one work which mentions vernages as a French(?) term for some kind of ducks. - -sche (discuss) 21:59, 30 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
