The more I have learned about wine... the more I have realized that it weaves in with human history from its very beginning as few, if any, other products do. Textiles, pottery, bread... there are other objects of daily use that we can also trace back to the Stone Age. Yet wine alone is charged with sacramental meaning, with healing powers; indeed with a life of its own.
