wine growing

Vineyard agricultural practice

Wine growing is the cultivation of grapevines for winemaking.

The term encompasses selecting grape varieties, managing vineyards, and harvesting fruit—everything up to but not including the winemaking process itself.

The region's wine growing dates back centuries.

Often hyphenated as wine-growing when used as an adjective: a wine-growing region.
