I am writing from the sunny and warm BRAZIL, where grapes were introduced with no success a long time ago by Portuguese priests. However, due to Enological Technology advances of the last few decades, we can now produce some quality wine over here too, greatly inspired by the Californian entrepreneurship. So, all that to say that there are wine lovers down south here. I would like to say that from a wine lover’s perspective, it was a real pleasure to hear such a concise, precise and amazing history of wine. It was just brilliant! Congratulations for putting all this knowledge available for us! I will certainly be following the channel!😃🍷
Jefferson Santos Thankd Jefferson; how cool about Brazil! I’ve heard there are some small efforts at winemaking there! I hope it grows. One day, I would love to visit your beautiful country, I hope I get the chance!
This is Awesome! Gus ( The most amazing and knowledgeable wine source in Cali!!!! ), from The Bottle Shop in Sierra Madre, CA said this is a must-watch for all wine lovers! Great video and great information! Cheers!!!
Great speech, exuberant, informative and inspirational! I particularly like the dichotomy between digital and analog communication. Wine is analog, you got it ;-)
Wes, great video! BTW, the cuttings that you gave me from Avila Adobe are thriving. I have since taken more cuttings from my vines and distributed them to several of my siblings in Scottsdale & Glendale, AZ. These new vines are also doing well.
@@WesClosPepe No, you mentioned "between the Black Sea and Caspian Sea"... Winemaking is specifically a Kartvelian tradition, not Transcaucasian, you can't attribute it to ancient Anatolians or other groups, we still use 8000 year old winemaking tradition, which you also haven't mentioned. It's the only one thing we invented, and it literally defines our culture, it's the earliest form of transfer of knowledge between our people, why is it so difficult to give us proper credit?
So much information in such a short time...my eye is twitching and I'm trying to process. Must watch again!

wine was created in Georgia
It is true that the earliest ceramic evidence we have is from Tblisi. I mention that in the presentation.
