5 out of 10
Got 8 of 10, perhaps I should switch to water, I know too much about wine.
Interesting Quiz. I Got Correct 9/10.
7 🙂
6/10. I don`t understand your alternative answers to question 5. Surely “this is correct” and “it was a custom” are saying exactly the same thing?
You got 7 out of 10 right!
Only half right. I am not really an avid wine drinker, so my knowledge of wine related stuff is not huge.
got 6 out of 10 right!
8 out of 10, Agate. Regarding “There is a strong indication that the wine mentioned in Bible, was not even fermented” your ‘correct answer’ seems totally at odds with the facts. Drunkenness is mentioned more than 70 times in the Bible!
Question 3, where did you get that information? That’s a bold statement to be making as fact!
I got all correct but the bible ones. I had to take wine classes for a restaurant I worked at as a youngster. It must of stayed with me. Great quiz.
