Discovering the Wonders of Wine at MercadoMila

A Brief History of Wine Production

Wine has been a part of human culture for thousands of years, with evidence of wine production dating back to ancient civilizations in Mesopotamia and Egypt. The art of winemaking spread throughout the Mediterranean region, with Greece and Rome playing significant roles in its development.

The Middle Ages saw a decline in wine production, but it was revived during the Renaissance period when European nobility began to cultivate vineyards once again. This led to the establishment of wine regions like Bordeaux and Burgundy, which are still renowned for their exceptional quality today.

The Art of Wine Tasting

Wine tasting is an art form that requires patience, attention to detail, and a willingness to learn. It's not just about drinking wine, but rather understanding the complex flavors, aromas, and textures that make each bottle unique.

As you swirl the wine in your glass, take note of its color, clarity, and viscosity. The nose is where the magic happens, as the subtlest hints of fruit, floral, or earthy notes can reveal themselves. Finally, let the wine sit on your palate for a moment before swallowing, allowing the flavors to unfold.
