Wine, it seems, is more than 8,000 years old. I guess it makes sense. If you leave grapes in a bowl outdoors under the hot Mediterranean sun for a couple days you can't stop them from becoming wine. In the ancient world, wine was always served at feasts. The Romans even had a derogatory term for a meal served without it: caninum prandium, literally, "dinner for a dog."
