Green Harvest
Intermediate Winemaking & Viticultureالتعريف
Removing unripe grape clusters in summer to concentrate the remaining fruit.
بالتفصيل
Also called vendange verte or crop thinning. By reducing yield (dropping clusters), each remaining cluster gets more vine resources — water, nutrients, sunlight. This produces more concentrated, complex grapes. A common practice in premium vineyards where quality trumps quantity. Typically done at véraison when uneven ripening can be identified.
