Ancient and Modern Wine
#1
I'm wondering why romans watered their wine -- is it because wine in those days was so strong? Is there a huge difference between modern and ancient wines?

Also, I read that women were not allowed to drink wine (or frowned upon at least). What was the reasoning for this?
