What is wine culture?

What is wine culture and what does it mean?

The so-called wine culture generally refers to a special cultural form with wine as its content, but it goes beyond the specific description of wine and rises to the cultural level and spiritual level. In a word, wine culture refers to the general name of material and spiritual and cultural achievements produced in the process of wine production and consumption. With the improvement of people's material and cultural living standards and the implementation of sustainable development strategy, the unsustainability of traditional wine culture in consumption is becoming more and more prominent.

Wine is the carrier of culture, and wine culture is actually mainly in two aspects: first, the unique style and artistic conception of wine body itself, which is full of the aesthetic culture bearing and spreading of a unique thing, which is the ontology culture of wine itself; Second, due to the wonderful taste and enjoyment of fine wine, there will gradually be some professional evaluations and industry carols, which will gradually spread and gradually leave some regional word-of-mouth and legends of "the right time, the right place and the harmonious people" in history, which is derivative culture.

Wine is an alcoholic beverage made from starch or sugar-containing substances such as grains and fruits by fermentation.

Except beer, the content of ethanol in liquor is expressed as% by volume (v/v/v), which is called alcohol content. It is stipulated that the alcohol content per 100 ml of liquor is 1 ml when the liquor temperature is 20 degrees, that is, 1%(V/V).

Wine is such a romantic and magical drink that countless people have sung and drunk it for thousands of years. There are also countless people who hate it and ban it. Wine must have its richer and deeper connotation.

Xu Shen, a great scholar in the Eastern Han Dynasty, had a unique view on wine. He said in Shuo Wen Jie Zi: "Wine is just enough, so it is the good and evil of human nature. (Note by Duan Yucai in Qing Dynasty: The guest and the host worship and drink; People addicted to prostitution also drink. ) ┄ ┄ Once created, (paragraph note: making ancient books is like reading) Good things and bad things will start. " Xu Shen thinks that wine has two explanations. One explanation is "just" and the other is "made". In ancient times, "Shi" was pronounced "Gang". Therefore, "both good and bad luck are caused by wine" means that both good and bad things are caused by wine.

Xu Shen's definition and explanation of wine about two thousand years ago summarized the essence of wine, and profoundly and thoroughly expressed the connotation of wine, especially its contradictory character. Just as "wine is still water, it can be stored and covered." That is, wine can not only help good manners, but also cause trouble; It can be the beauty of adults or the evil of others.

Wine is really a magical drink. With its distinctive personality and extremely contradictory personality, it penetrated into the whole society and brewed a colorful and mellow wine culture history for itself.
