Wine and Viticulture
Wine and viticulture involve the cultivation of grapevines and the production of wine from grapes. Viticulture is the science and practice of growing grapes, focusing on vineyard management, soil health, climate, and grape variety to produce high-quality fruit. Once harvested, grapes are fermented—converted into wine through a controlled process involving yeast and other techniques. Factors like terroir (climate, soil, topography), vine care, and timing influence the flavor and character of the wine. Overall, the art and science of viticulture aim to create wines that express their unique origins and characteristics.
