Press for winemaking. It consists of a large cylindrical basket made of wooden planks joined by metal rings, with a horizontal mechanism placed in the central part for crushing the grapes. The juice was collected in ceramic vessels, such as the ‘Lebrillo’.
In the Middle Ages, most of the technological advances in winemaking were due to the religious orders (especially in France and Germany), which owned large tracts of vineyards and produced large quantities of wine in their abbeys and bishoprics. It was here that the basket press became popular.
