For those who don't know, Rtveli is a technical process of harvesting grapes in Georgia
Which is held once a year - in the fall.
Many people want to participate in this event, since the process is entertaining. In the 21st century, wine is made using a mechanized press, but sometimes in a folk way - by crushing with feet. The earliest harvesting starts in Kakheti. Rtveli in this region begins earlier. From the end of August, you can already observe the ripe grapes, which are ready to be harvested.
