Grape harvest:

The first stage obviously has to be the grape harvest is the primary stage as we are going to select and choose the raw materials, so we are going to harvest our grapes by hand or with machinery and then we are going to clean them and move on to the next stage

Grape Squeezer

After a careful selection, we are going to take our grapes and squeeze them to get the 'juice' that will then form our wine, at this stage we need to be very scrupulous and careful as we should make a further selection so that we do not get grapes that are not of the best quality

Fermentation

After the first stages we need to move on to fermentation which will give the opportunity to make alcoholic our products along with sugars and other essences will ensure the flavor we desirep fermentation can last for months and years, depending on the type of wine we want to produce

Transfer to wooden barrels

The transfer to wooden barrels follows fermentation as it will be aged in these barrels, many wine connoisseurs also called someliers, also wish to have in their cellars wines with decades of aging that in turn are considered very fine

Bottling

After all the stages, you move on to the final stage, bottling, bottling may seem like a simple thing, but the bottle has to be suitable for the wine that you have made as all the wine will go to rest in your bottles and it has to retain the flavors before you go into bottling
