Illustrated Wine A-Z (Revised 2022)

Vine cycle's end game is onomatopoeiac 'Crush'
Ripe berries must now be transformed into mush

Smashed underfoot in Antiquity (and beyond)
Or screw- or bladder presses of nouveau monde

Some do natural fermentation of clusters whole
Others use automated systems to reach their goal

'Crush' has better punch than words 'vendange' or 'harvest'
Making grape juice flow takes some Mixed Martial Artist
