Genesis 9:21

And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent.
  1. Noah's efforts to grow a vineyard were successful.
  2. Noah made wine from grapes he grew.
  3. Noah's wine fermented. This was not just new, unfermented wine.
  4. Noah drank enough to become intoxicated on at least one occasion.
  5. On this one occasion he lay drunk and uncovered in his tent.
  6. Noah still lived in a tent quite a while after leaving the ark. It was most likely more than a year after planting his vineyard before he would have been able to harvest grapes and make wine.
