Vendange is a French term that refers to the process of harvesting grapes for winemaking. It typically occurs in the early autumn when the grapes are ripe and ready to be picked. Vendange can involve manual labor, where workers handpick the grapes, or mechanical methods, such as using grape-picking machines. The harvested grapes are then used to produce wine through various winemaking processes. Vendanges also have cultural significance in wine-growing regions, often accompanied by festivals and celebrations.
