1. Introduction
At all times and in all over the world, human beings see wines as their cultural essence which has been developing for thousands of years. As far as most people are concerned, they are not just a kind of common drink, but a kind of inner sustenance in realistic culture. In both China and western countries, wines play a more and more significant role in daily life. However, different countries have their different wine culture and the wine-culture differences are like a miniature of cultural differences between China and the West.
1.1 Literature Review
No matter when and where, wine culture is always a hot research area, and many scholars have reached so many achievements so far.
More than one hundred years ago, Germanic philosopher Nietzsche come up with the concept of Dionysus Spirit and he thought that wines are gifts which God vouchsafes. R.Phillips (2017) explained the process of western wine-culture development including wine production, wine custom and mutual wine trade communication between China and the West. What’s more, Patrick McGovern (2017) detailedly analyzed grape wine culture which is quite representative in western wine culture and made a comparison with the most characteristic kind of wine in Chinese wine culture——Chinese liquor.
