Greece (wine) : ウィキペディア英語版
Greek wine

Greece is one of the oldest wine-producing regions in the world. The earliest evidence of Greek wine has been dated to 6,500 years ago〔(Ancient Mashed Grapes Found in Greece ) Discovery News.〕〔(Mashed grapes find re-write history of wine ) Zeenews〕 where wine was produced on a household or communal basis. In ancient times, as trade in wine became extensive, it was transported from end to end of the Mediterranean; Greek wine had especially high prestige in Italy under the Roman Empire. In the medieval period, wines exported from Crete, Monemvasia and other Greek ports fetched high prices in northern Europe.
==History==

The origins of wine-making in Greece go back 6,500 years〔(6,500-year-old Mashed Grapes Found in Greece ). Discovery News.〕〔(6,500-year-old Mashed grapes found ) World’s earliest evidence of crushed grapes〕 and evidence suggesting wine production confirm that Greece is home to the second oldest known grape wine remnants discovered in the world〔〔〔(6500-year-old Mashed grapes found )〕 and the world’s earliest evidence of crushed grapes.〔 The spread of Greek civilization and their worship of Dionysus, the god of wine, spread Dionysian cults throughout the Mediterranean areas during the period of 1600 BC to the year 1.〔Introduction to Wine Laboratory Practices and Procedures, Jean L. Jacobson, Springer, p. 84.〕 Hippocrates used wine for medicinal purposes and readily prescribed it.〔 Greek wines and their varieties were well known and traded throughout the Mediterranean.〔Introduction to Wine Laboratory Practices and Procedures, Jean L. Jacobson, Springer, p.84〕 The Ancient Greeks introduced vines such as Vitis vinifera〔 and made wine in their numerous colonies in Italy,〔The Oxford Companion to Archaeology, Brian Murray Fagan, 1996 Oxford Univ Pr, p. 757.〕 Sicily,〔Wine: A Scientific Exploration, Merton Sandler, Roger Pinder, CRC Press, p. 66.〕 southern France,〔Medieval France: an encyclopedia, William Westcott Kibler, Routledge Taylor & Francis Group, p. 964.〕 and Spain.〔 The Vitis vinifera grape which thrives in temperate climates near coastal areas with mild winters and dry summers adapted well and flourished in the Northern Mediterranean areas.〔 The most reputable wines of ancient Greece were Chian, Coan, Corcyraean, Cretan, Euboean, Lesbian, Leucadian, Mendaean, Peparethan wine, Rhodian and Thasian.Wine was also important for ancient Macedonia. Two other names may or may not be regional: Bibline wine and Pramnian wine are named in the earliest Greek poetry, but without any reliable geographical details.
In 1937, a Wine Institute was established by the Ministry of Agriculture. During the 1960s, retsina suddenly became the national beverage. With rapidly growing tourism, retsina became associated worldwide with Greece and Greek wine. Greece’s first Cabernet Sauvignon vineyard was planted in 1963. In 1971 and 1972, legislation established appellation laws.
