Ah, _that_ Georgia.
Not this one.
BTW: The remains of the oldest brewery in North America are on Jekyll Island*, Georgia.
(* - yes, _that_ Jekyll Island.)

Wine literally makes itself: just needs a vessel to ferment in. If sturdy/durable pottery is the benchmark for antiquity they could be thousands of years off here, too. Dried animal stomachs would have worked.

Amazing how most people have forgotten so quickly what all knew for millennia: grapes naturally ferment.
“Grape juice”, as we know & assume it, is a very recent invention.

"World’s earliest evidence of wine-making found in Georgia"On the backs of Black slaves, no doubt, who, brought the invention with them from Africa.
And, then it was stolen by White males.

FWIW, there’s very little of it left. Barely a fenced-off bunch of foundation-shaped rocks on side of road at north end of island. Intriguing to see, though, for those of us who find such things interesting.

In Georgia they didn’t make wine. What they found there was ancient90-100 proof shine.
