Roman Wine Tasted Much Better Than Anyone Thought...

[Frodo]

...so much so that their method of winemaking continued for centuries in Georgia (in the Caucasus) and is being brought back to life elsewhere:

What did Roman wine taste like? Much better than previously thought, according to new research

I'd like to drink it the same way they did, from a kylix.

I'd defintelty love to try it, but not sure if I'd like it.  I hear wine back in those days was watered down (for obvious reasons)

I like my wines fiercely red, extremely dry, and very, very tannic.  Uruguayan Tannat and Left Bank reds are my jam.  

As the ultimate wine connoisseur, this is how I judge a red:  if, upon that very first sip, it immediately clears out your sinuses, makes your tongue feel like sandpaper, and clenches up your buttcheeks, that's a damn fine wine.
