viticulturist
Wine grape grower
A viticulturist is a person who cultivates grapes, especially for winemaking.
The work involves managing vineyards—soil, climate, pruning, pest control, and harvest timing.
Viticulture is the practice itself: The region's viticulturists have adapted ancient techniques to modern climate conditions.
