Twelve pound of grapes were picked from my one plant. The grapes were pristine, and were processed into juice for long term storage. Process is to place in a pot with about a liter of water to facilitate boiling. An electric stirrer was used to crush the grapes, then strained through a fine mesh. The juice as placed in jars and pressure processed (sterilized) for long term storage.

Why waste good grape juice by fermenting, since wine has almost no nutrients, whereas the juice has them all.

Maybe the wine should be made by asdding a cup of alcohol to a liter of juice. Most people wouldn't know the difference.
