A Thousand Years of Wine Culture

Over the course of its long history, the art of brewing in China has continually advanced. At the same time, wine has reflected the joys and sorrows of everyday life, inspiring countless literary masterpieces. The elegant names given to wines carry profound meaning; wine policies have varied from one dynasty to another; and wine rituals and customs are rich and diverse. There are countless poems and lyrics about wine, a wealth of books and treatises on the subject, and an endless variety of drinking games. Together, these form the vast treasury of Chinese wine culture. As human history moves forward, wine culture will continue to evolve and grow richer, creating an even brighter future.
