Wine is not just an object of pleasure, but an object of knowledge; and the pleasure depends on the knowledge.
Sir Roger Scruton, I Drink Therefore I Am
Si tu te souviens bien, il existe cinq bonnes raisons de boire : L'arrivée d'un hôte, la soif présente et à venir, le bon goût du vin et n'importe quelle autre raison.

Greece is considered the birthplace of wine culture, and today wine is so woven into the country’s fabric of life that it often becomes hard to tell where one bottle ends and another begins.
Since ancient times, Greece has considered wine an integral part of daily life. Wine was poured during ancient Greek symposiums to lubricate lively conversations, though no debate called for full intoxication. Instead, those like Hippocrates studied wine for its medicinal purposes while others like Homer wrote about it extensively in “The Iliad” and “The Odyssey.” In fact, Greece became the first culture to have a dedicated god for wine –– Dionysus.
With thousands of years of experience, it’s no wonder that the country’s winemaking techniques are some of the oldest in the world, and can be traced back to the third millennia BCE.
From the early 1500s to 1800s, Greek wines were glorious. However, in 1830, these sprawling vineyards were suddenly largely abandoned. Agriculture in Greece became a means of survival, and the country was forced to prioritize the production of food over wine.

me: has carefully monitered for 6 days the course of fermentations on grape juice inoculated on purpose with baker's yeast
also me: weird. why does it suddenly smell like wine in the lab?
Who knew there were vineyards in Colorado? We tried the fabulous riesling among others, and it certainly was a nice pitstop while driving through the desert!
Archaeologists recently uncovered structures belonging to a 2,000-year-old Greco-Roman winery at a site in Egypt.
What’s interesting to me about this find is that it’s in the Delta, and not the Fayuum. Both are fertile and irrigable, so I’m not sure why I’m surprised. I just assume that the Fayuum was the breadbasket and wine jar of ancient Egypt, I guess.
