Tom Standage
Quote
Greek customs such as wine drinking were regarded as worthy of imitation by other cultures. So the ships that carried Greek wine were carrying Greek civilization, distributing it around the Mediterranean and beyond, one amphora at a time. Wine displaced beer to become the most civilized and sophisticated of drinks — a status it has maintained ever since, thanks to its association with the intellectual achievements of Ancient Greece.
