Exploring the World of Wine at Reading House

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 their own vineyards. This led to the establishment of wine regions like Bordeaux and Burgundy, which are still renowned for their exceptional wines today.

The Art of Wine Tasting

Wine tasting is an art that requires patience, attention to detail, and a willingness to learn. It's not just about swishing the wine around in your mouth or sniffing it for aromas; it's about understanding the complex flavors and nuances that make each wine unique.

At Reading House, we believe that wine should be enjoyed by everyone, regardless of their level of expertise. That's why we offer wine tastings and educational workshops to help you develop your palate and discover new favorite wines.
