Critics Review
The methods and case studies described in this book provide the methodological building blocks for a comprehensive history of winemaking in the Roman world. * Theoretical Rowan Archaeology Journal *This volume gathers the latest research on grape growing and wine production in the Roman Mediterranean.

Banducci, Associate Professor of Greek and Roman Studies, Carleton University, Canada
