I'm wondering if I missed the original post on this - it's right in my area 
of interest (note I don't say expertise - the more I learn, the less I know, 
etc etc) and I doubt I'd have skipped over anything with the word grape 
involved, but maybe it started under another thread .... could someone fill 
me in on what Roman manuscripts, or recipes involving grapes, or what have 
you, prompted this thread??

(And yes, I have read Hauviette's later post about versions and various 
translations - but being pretty much a newcomer to the primary sources 
thing, I got a bit confused about whose translations of what, etc. Title, 
author, time period would be much appreciated ... pretty please and all 
that).
