Where is the origin of wine?

The origin of wine can be traced back to prehistoric times. The history of human wine-making began about 40,000 to 50,000 years ago in the "new human" stage of the Paleolithic Age. At that time, human beings had enough food to maintain basic life, so they had the conditions to imitate the brewing process of natural biological instinct. The earliest brewing activities of human beings only mechanically and simply repeated the self-brewing process of nature. The real purposeful artificial wine-making activity began after human beings entered the Neolithic Age and agriculture appeared. At this time, mankind had more abundant food, and then made exquisite pottery utensils, which made it possible to make wine. According to the research of unearthed cultural relics, there were pottery plates engraved with beer making method in Mesopotamia about 6 000 BC. In 4 000 BC, Mesopotamia made 16 kinds of beer from barley, wheat and honey. In 3 000 BC, this area brewed beer with bitter wine.
