Noah's ark landed on the mountains of Ararat, and the Bible record seems to indicate that he was the first wine-maker. Secular history also records the origin of winemaking in approximately the same area:
from <http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-22758119> "French wine has Italian origins"
"The earliest known examples of wine-making as we know it are in the regions of modern-day Iran, Georgia, and Armenia - and researchers believe that modern winemaking slowly spread westward from there to Europe."<ac_metadata title="Genesis 9:20 The first record of wine making, by Noah" related_topics="Genesis 9"> </ac_metadata>
