The inventor of wine is said to be Yidi in Yu Xia's time, which has been nearly 4000 years. Coincidentally, as far away as Sichuan where there were no words at that time, in the 1980s, archaeologists excavated cultural relics in Sanxingdui, Guanghan, and there were many exquisite wine vessels. Since there are utensils, of course, wine is made earlier, although the two times are similar, (Sanxingdui era, after scientific appraisal, is about 3000 years. ) and thousands of miles away, the traffic jam of the "Southwest Line", the emergence of wine is as far away as China, which is a miracle. Here, Chengdu's long wine-making history is displayed.
"Wine as a gift" (Zuo Zhuan [Spring and Autumn Period]), from ancient times to the present, ancestral temple sacrifices, court banquets, diplomatic rewards, social communication, and even "seeing off a river beam (Su Wu, Li Ling)", "writing a poem and crossing it" (Cao Cao), "picking chrysanthemums under the east fence" and "raising". However, the problems brought about by drinking alcohol, such as "drinking" and "drinking balance", lead to genocide and death, which often makes people sigh. Therefore, Confucius said, "There is no limit to wine, but it is not like chaos." This is a complicated statement.
Because of its mild climate and rich specialties, Chengdu has a long history of brewing similar to that of the Central Plains. "Huayang National Records and Records" "In the ninth century, Ming Di began to set up ancestral halls, using wine." Kaiming Peanut, about 400 BC, is the earliest record of brewing in Chengdu, and the wine vessels of Sanxingdui in Guanghan have pushed the history of brewing in Chengdu for more than 1000 years, to the point where "Wen Jun is like a washing vessel". The prosperity of Chengdu wine industry should also be more prosperous with the development of social economy. Bricks unearthed in Pengxian County and Xindu District prove that as early as the Eastern Han Dynasty, Chengdu had begun to use distillation technology to make wine.
Mianzhu Jiannan Shaochun, Luzhou Litchi Green and Pixian Pitong Liquor in the Tang Dynasty are among the best famous wines in western Sichuan. Chengdu ancient and modern records record that there are fairs in Chengdu every month of the year, such as the lantern market in the first month and the flower market in February. Taking October as the wine market, we can imagine the grand occasion of empty lanes at that time. Du Fu: "Fish knows that the place of origin is beautiful, and wine does not need to be sold." This famous wine has been passed down to this day and is still appreciated by drinkers.
