Inside Text: From the Vine... The evolution of the bottle was an essential component in the development of the wine industry. After the fall of the Roman Empire, wine was stored in bottles or sacks made of animal skins. Wine could still be transported across oceans, but it was difficult to keep it fresh for long periods of time. Most wines had to be consumed soon after its production or it would turn into vinegar.
