What is it about wine? Why is wine so fine? Why has it inspired poets, sages, philosophers, and ordinary folk throughout the ages to sing its praises and laud its color, taste, texture and purity. The when and where of the origin of wine is lost to history but people who have studied the matter guess that it was naturally invented, in other words, by accident, sometime around 5-6000 years BC, somewhere in the Middle East or Southern Russia. Wherever and whenever it happened, it was one of the most beneficial, useful and serendipitous events in human history.
