Gilbert of the Vines
On this tab
Gilbert of the Vines belongs to the legendary line that tradition credits to Garth Greenhand, and House Redwyne points to him as its origin.
His name survives chiefly through one skill: he is said to have given the people of the Arbor the secret of a sweet wine that would make the island famous.

Wine of the Arbor
Tradition credits him with one specific teaching: he showed the men of the Arbor how to turn into sweet wine the plump, glossy grapes that grew on the island.
From that, according to the legend, springs the wine-making fame that would later follow his house.
