"Winemaking or vinification is the production of wine, starting with selection
of the grapes or other produce and ending with bottling the finished wine".
In England and Wales, the viticultural year starts in April, flowering usually takes place in June and in July the young grapes begin to swell and grow and the grape bunches begin to develop. August is generally the warmest month and this is when the early grape varieties begin to ripen. the bulk of the harvest takes place in October. The quality of the grapes is absolutely key, as they are the deciding factor on the final product. The process of making wine comprises a series of simple operations. The first is crushing, where the essential sugars react with yeast. There are other steps in the process, but the order in which they occur depends on the type of wine being made.
