Description

Wine has a deeper history than any mere beverage. Present on the earliest recorded points of human history, wine has been present on the heights of sophistication and the depths of debauchery, an integral a part of religious ritual and a free-flowing social lubricant.

This new edition explores the tourism and terroir-driven global industry of nowadays even as reaching way back to Ancient Greece and Rome. At the way it stops at significant points in history including the birth of Charlemagne, Venice within the 17th century, trade within the Middle Ages and more. Celebratory and thorough, 9000 Years of Wine never we could the dimensions of history – wars, fraud, blight, colonization, Prohibition – get in the best way of a good story or notable bottle.
