Commentary for Avodah Zarah 131:1
חמרא עתיקא בענבי דברי הכל בנותן טעם חמרא חדתא בענבי אביי אמר במשהו ורבא אמר בנותן טעם
Old wine [which falls] upon grapes, all agree that [they are prohibited, if] it imparts a flavor. New wine [which falls] upon grapes, Abaye said that [they are prohibited] however small the quantity but Rava said that it must impart a flavor.
Daf Shevui to Avodah Zarah
Old wine has a taste very different from grapes. Therefore when it falls on the grapes, all agree that the grapes are prohibited only if the wine imparts taste.
However, new wine will taste like grapes. Therefore there is a dispute about this issue—Abaye says that the grapes are prohibited even if there is only a very small amount of wine, whereas Rava says that for the grapes to be prohibited they must impart taste.
