vīnum n (genitive vīnī); second declension

    In wine lies the truth.
    • 29 BCE – 19 BCE, Virgil, Aeneid 1.195–197:
      Vīna bonus quae deinde cadīs onerārat Acestēs
      lītore Trīnacriō dederatque abeuntibus hērōs
      dīvidit [...].
      Next, wine – which good Acestes had loaded in casks along the Sicilian shore, and [which that] hero had given upon our departures – [Aeneas] divided up.
      (See: Acestes/Acestes; Aeneas/Aeneas; “Trinacria” was an ancient name for Sicily/Sicily.)
    • 8 CE, Ovid, Fasti 3.305:
      vīna quiēs sequitur
      Rest is following the wines.
      Or, in more natural English, as implied by the plural vīna:
