The Roman goddess of wine, Meditrina, Daughter of Apollo. She was the deity in charge of wine, longevity and health... so concerned with our well-being that some say the word "medicine" came from her name. Every Oct. 11 in honor of the new vintage, a festival called Meditrinalia was celebrated. When the season's harvest was in and its first wines made, revelers would mix new wine with old, drink a copious amounts and pour a little onto the earth for the gods and goddesses.
