A bottle of 2000-year-old wine has been found in an excavated and sealed bronze vessel in China's Shaanxi Province.

The bronze jug, along with a further 260 items, was unearthed from a civilian tomb collection near Shaanxi's capital Xi'an. It would appear the container dates from between the late Warring States period (475-221 BCE) and the Qin Dynasty (221-206 BCE), Xinhua reports.
