What the result establishes
Read the result explanation (contains the answer)
This is a low-scoring accepted example: Plankton, +10 PTS. Acceptance and a high score are different outcomes. Nothing in this one result establishes which other wine varieties are accepted or what their rarity would be.
Sources: result card at approximately 1:21; official FAQ on answer curation and rarity.
The official FAQ explains that answer sets are curated and may omit valid entries. A dictionary or factual list cannot, by itself, establish what a particular Krillion round accepts. See the scoring guide for the creator’s explanation.
Source & verification
We checked the visible prompt and result card in Brian K’s “Krillion August 26, 2026” video on 14 October 2026. The title is the publisher’s label. It does not independently establish an official daily puzzle date or number.
To check the evidence, open the video and seek to 1:08 for the prompt and 1:21 for the result. Times are approximate. This page documents one observed answer, not the full answer set.
