In 1867, archaeologists unearthed a glass vessel \u2014 about the size of a modern magnum bottle \u2014 from a Roman tomb near the Rhine River. Inside was liquid wine, still intact. Preserved under a protective layer of olive oil and sealed with wax, this 1,600-year-old wine became the oldest known liquid wine\u2026 at least for a while.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Miraculously, it even survived the heavy bombings of World War II. Today, it sits in the Palatinate Historical Museum in Speyer, Germany \u2014 an object of awe and curiosity.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

But that long-held title now belongs to another.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In 2019, near the Spanish city of Seville, archaeologists discovered another Roman tomb \u2014 this one holding a cremation urn that, astonishingly, still contained liquid. Scientific tests later revealed that this wine was 300 years older than its German counterpart. That puts it squarely in the time of Jesus of Nazareth.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The tomb contained six urns \u2014 made of limestone, sandstone, and glass. Three belonged to men, three to women. Two even bore names: Hispanae and Senicio.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The glass urn, placed inside a lead container, held the cremated remains of a 45-year-old man \u2014 and a gold ring bearing the image of Janus, the Roman god of transitions.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

To analyze the liquid, the excavation team turned to organic chemist Jos\u00e9 Rafael Ruiz Arrebola. Using methods like chromatography-mass spectrometry (don\u2019t worry, I can\u2019t pronounce it either), he decoded the composition.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Though the pH level was a bit high for wine (7.5), centuries of degradation accounted for it. Yet seven polyphenols, familiar antioxidant compounds, and a mineral signature akin to modern sherry wines confirmed:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Yes, this was wine.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Still, one question lingered: red or white?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The answer came from a single compound \u2014 syringic acid.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When red wine ages and its pigments break down, syringic acid remains. In this case, it didn\u2019t. That absence pointed toward a white wine.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Once deemed safe to drink, Arrebola suggested it could be tasted \u2014 if one was brave enough.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a bit cloudy,\u201d he said, \u201cbecause of the cremated remains\u2026 but filtered carefully, it\u2019s drinkable.\u201d Then he added, \u201cBut to be honest, I wouldn\u2019t want to be the first to try it.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And so, by accident, a new chapter in the history of wine was written.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Who knows what else lies beneath? Ten years ago, no one imagined finding liquid wine from the Roman Empire.\nPerhaps somewhere \u2014 in a clay jar buried deep in the soil \u2014 another forgotten wine waits to be found.<\/p>\r\n
