The winemaking process begins with the harvesting of grapes, typically from vineyards. Once the grapes are collected, they are crushed to release their juice, which is essential for fermentation. This juice is then placed in fermentation tanks, where yeast is added to convert the sugars into alcohol, creating wine. After fermentation, the wine is aged in barrels or tanks to develop its flavors. Once the aging process is complete, the wine is filtered and bottled. Finally, it is labeled and prepared for distribution, ready for consumers to enjoy the unique characteristics of each vintage.
