EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the 1870s in the beautiful vineyards of Bordeaux, France, where the artisanal process of grape harvesting and winemaking was carried out with great care and tradition. In this photograph from Mary Evans Picture Library, we witness the labor-intensive task of pressing grapes by hand. Farmhands, dressed in simple work clothes, use long-handled tools with three spokes, resembling oversized potato masher, to crush the ripe grapes and extract their precious juice. The wooden tub beneath catches the juice as it is released from the grapes, ready to be transferred to fermentation vessels. The scene exudes an authentic and historical charm, as the grape cultivators work in unison, their faces etched with concentration and determination. The wooden tools, worn from years of use, and the rough texture of the grapes, add to the rustic and earthy atmosphere. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of wine cultivation in Bordeaux, a region renowned for its world-class wines. The process of crushing grapes by hand was a labor-intensive and time-consuming task, but it was an essential part of the winemaking process that contributed to the unique flavors and characteristics of the final product. As we admire this photograph, we are transported back to a simpler time, where the connection between the land, the people, and the fruit of their labor was deeply intertwined. The pressing of grapes by hand is a testament to the dedication and passion that has been passed down through generations of winemakers in Bordeaux, and serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that continues to thrive in this beautiful region of France.
