The History of Wine

From Ancient Beginnings to Modern Day
Wine has a rich and storied history dating back thousands of years, making it one of humanity's oldest and most cherished beverages. Archaeological evidence suggests that the origins of winemaking may trace back to around 6000 BCE in what is now Georgia, where clay vessels containing remnants of grape wine were discovered. This early evidence highlights the cultural and ritual significance of wine, which soon spread across neighbouring regions.
