  1. Their wine was very different from ours. It was very "thick", and probably very bitter from concentrated tannins.

  2. Roman wine was fermented in large terracotta pots (big enough to hold a man) lined with beeswax and buried to the neck in the ground. The pots were left open during fermentation. The result was a very "thick" and bitter (due to the concentration of tannines) wine, much different from our, and really difficult to drink alone.
