"A beautiful long standing tradition of drinking wine at the end of a long day.''
Nobody knows exactly how long we have been making and drinking wine but it has been a long time. There is evidence from Neolithic tools that our cave dwelling ancestors were drinking wine over 13,000 years ago. By 5,000 BCE we have evidence of wine being made in bulk. And it seems that there is evidence of wine in many different cultures all over the globe from thousands of years ago. That puts us all in a beautifully long standing tradition of drinking wine at the end of a long day. And while the tools and holding vessels may have changed the wine has ultimately remained the same. Things come and go but wine is for all intents and purposes, forever. So, next time you have a glass remember you are joining in with people from all ages and places around the world.
