BERLIN – An extraordinary find was made during excavations of a Roman tomb in Germany. The diggers recovered 16 bottles of wine that were brewed centuries ago and may still be drinkable.
The wine was stored for over 1,650 years ago, the bottles were a little worse to wear and covered in dirt. Even so, the quality is still acceptable enough to drink and enjoy.
The wine was one of 16 bottles recovered.
Brewed somewhere between 325 and 359 BC, experts believe the drink was brewed in the 4th century and although the froth and impurities clearly surround the bottle, the taste is still acceptable.
Whether anyone will be brave enough to take a swig of the world’s oldest wine from its bottle remains to be seen.
Since 1867, the old, unnamed bottle has been in storage, along with the graves of a nobleman and duchess in Speyer, Germany, excavated and excavated.
The wine’s odd appearance has several explanations, with wine made using olive oil to seal off air from outside.
LADBible reports that while it may look like someone’s vomit caused by drinking too much wine, the liquid inside is still drinkable, though without much of the alcohol content.
