History: Grapes appear to have originated in the Mediterannean regions of southern Europe and Middle East, thriving in deep, moist, humus-rich, neutral-to-alkaline soil in sun and warm climates; and the grape’s hardiness varies according to the cultivar. Grapes were first cultivated near the Caspian Sea, and their use as food and drink had spread throughout the Mediterranean world before The Bible was written. They were cultivated in Egypt over four thousand years ago, and even the ancient Greeks knew that wine possessed wonderful health benefits. Wine is the fermented juice of grapes, and it has been used in various cultures for almost five thousand years. Egyptian records dating from 2500 B.C. refer to wines, and there are frequent references to wine in the Old Testament. Wine was also used by early Minoan and Etruscan civilizations, and we can thank the Roman army for introducing Genesis
