A picker unloads grapes into a trailer at a vineyard in Espira-De-L'Agly, southern France, on August 12, 2020, during the wine harvest. Every year, the harvest in the Agly valley, flooded with sunshine 300 days a year, is the first in France, starting with dry white wine grape varieties. According to the Ministry of Ecological Transition, “on average, the harvest takes place 18 days earlier than 40 years ago” in France and the advance of the harvest date is “an effective marker of global warming”.
