China has a long history of wine-making, which has a history of more than 3,000 years since the Shang and Zhou Dynasties. According to Zhu Yizhong's Wine Classic, in early summer, an official named Yidi made wine with mulberry leaves as a gift to Dayu. After dinner, Dayu felt very sweet and said with emotion, "Some descendants will die because of drinking." Therefore, it is forbidden to make wine, but this method of making wine is still circulated in secret in the palace. According to Shuo Wen Jie Zi, "Gu Qing Shao Kang made brooms and wine first, and Shao Kang and Du Kang also made them." Since ancient times, literati have loved drinking because; Wine has many elegant names, such as "golden syrup", "wanye" and "Qiongjiang", and some of them directly enter poetry. Wine has become an important part of literati's life art, and wine has become a part of literati culture in "Hundred Poems of Li Bai Fighting for Wine".

In China people's daily life, wine is not regarded as a simple drink, but as a "lubricant" of interpersonal relationship and a "courage agent" of personal character, which plays a role in regulating interpersonal relationship, cultivating and inspiring people's character. There is a saying in China that "no wine is a feast", and wine is everywhere in our social life; Throughout history, the people of China have always cherished friendship. When friends meet, whether they meet after a long separation or are invited to meet, they should talk about wine, get together and leave. In China, people call wedding banquets "wedding banquets", full moon wine when children are born, calamus wine in chong yang wine and Dragon Boat Festival, toasting to celebrate success, toasting lovers and making friends. In addition, people should also drink alcohol when they worship gods, ancestors and start business.

China not only has a wide variety of wines, but also has a long drinking culture. China people pay the most attention to artistic conception when drinking. The best state is drunkenness rather than drunkenness, which makes people in the happiest and most exciting state. At this time, people not only talk a lot, but also have great interests, and they are full of wit and poetry. "Hundred Poems of Li Bai Fighting for Wine" is the best example.

China people also weave many wine sequences and drinking songs during drinking. For example, "Every bosom friend only has a thousand glasses of wine, so you can drink as much as you can, and it is not good to drink too much or not at all", "One glass of wine makes you happy", "Five glasses of wine are better than the Yangtze River water" and "Ten glasses of wine, red hearts and the rising sun shine together" ... Therefore, there have been rich wine allusions since ancient times, such as "Cao cooking wine on heroes", another manifestation of Chinese wine culture is that he likes to taste slowly, but he doesn't like it. Therefore, there are not only many exquisite drinking utensils, but also various drinking methods. If you need a small small wine cup, there is a fixed standard for how much a full cup costs. In the folk, there is also the habit of warming wine and scalding wine. People think that drinking cold wine is harmful to health. The wine in the bottle is often poured into the hip flask, heated with hot water, and then drunk while it is hot. These cultures about wine are the living customs of China people. However, with the invasion of foreign wine culture, the wine culture in China is gradually changing.
