What would have been a liberal estimate of the possible alcohol ABA or %? How much sugar would have been in it/L?

Even wine for Kings?

    How so? The ancients literally added lead sugar to wine because they wanted it sweeter.

    If anything, I’d suspect modern winemaking techniques make it easier to produce dry wines that are palatable.

      We consume more sugar daily than they did.

      I think we require more sugar to obtain the same perceived level of sweetness, but that’s just a theory.
