WINES
The vine has been spreading thanks to its adaptive characteristics, it has required few genetic changes to adapt to its cultivation in different areas, it has low water and mineral requirements, it grows in lands where other fruit trees would not grow, thanks to its regenerative capacity. allows intensive harvesting.
This adaptability was one of the keys to its expansion throughout Europe, as well as in most of the temperate climates on earth. One of the major changes that the vine underwent was when, in ancient times, it was converted by artificial selection from a "wild" variety to a "domesticated" (hermaphrodite), the reasons for this change are currently unknown. Soon it was found that wine was the sum of a set of environmental factors: climate, latitude, altitude, hours of light, etc.
Many of the great cultures of the Mediterranean as well as the Middle East claim to have invented the winemaking process themselves, attributing its discovery to a local hero or an agrarian divinity. But the fact is that trade and the expansion of some cultures and empires has caused wine and its cultivation to spread throughout various regions of the Earth, adopting new flavors and aromas. Wine (like other staple foods) appears in culture loaded with symbolism. The adaptive capacity of the grape to different climates and soils, its high yield, is the only fruit that retains in its interior quantities of an unusual acid called tartaric that favors the action of yeasts. It can be said that grape is currently the most harvested fruit worldwide, with 70% of it dedicated to wine production.
