Grape Stomp
Grape stomping is a traditional winemaking technique where people stomp on grapes by foot to release their juices and start the fermentation process. It was a vital part of winemaking before the invention of modern wine presses, and the Romans used it for centuries.
Some say that grape stomping can lead to a smoother flavor and faster fermentation than other methods. With that said, today’s grape stomping has taken on a life of its own where it has become quite trendy to mimic the iconic “I Love Lucy” episode Lucille Ball made famous.
When asked, one attendee proclaimed “Yeah, I’m stomping on grapes just like Lucille Ball did in that famous I Love Lucy episode.” Her boyfriend asked “So you feel like Lucille Ball?” Her response: “I love you Ricky!” No matter your motivation you will surely want to get that instagram worthy shot you’ll talk about for years to come.
