Isaiah 24:7, 11
The new wine dries up, the vine withers. All the merrymakers now groan. / In the streets they cry out for wine. All joy turns to gloom; rejoicing is exiled from the land.
Hosea 2:9
Therefore I will take back My grain in its time and My new wine in its season; I will take away My wool and linen, which were given to cover her nakedness.
Joel 1:10
The field is ruined; the land mourns. For the grain is destroyed, the new wine is dried up, and the oil fails.
Haggai 1:11
I have summoned a drought on the fields and on the mountains, on the grain, new wine, and oil, and on whatever the ground yields, on man and beast, and on all the labor of your hands.”
Haggai 2:16
from that time, when one came expecting a heap of twenty ephahs of grain, there were but ten. When one came to the winepress to draw out fifty baths, there were but twenty.
