wine production
Grape to glass
Wine production is the process of making wine from grapes or other fruits—crushing, fermenting, aging, and bottling.
The term covers everything from small-scale artisanal winemaking to large commercial operations.
Regions known for wine production often have centuries of tradition: Burgundy's wine production dates to Roman times.
Also called winemaking or viniculture.
