How to unlock the The Grapes of Wrath Stomped achievement in The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition - Definitive Guide

Keep in mind, that this achievment can be glitched, like everything else in the game. Clear persistent storage and restart the game before you try it.

This achievement is highly missable! Since it revolves around two seemingly opposing factions/persons, you have to stop the given quests at some point and progress the other one. DO NOT progress further than 4/5 on the first objective to ensure that.

This achievement is quite involved and you can begin working towards it once you read the “Wine Wars” note on the notice board outside the Cockatrice Inn. This will trigger the “Wine Wars: Belgaard” quest.

1. Follow the objective to the auction near Plegmund’s Bridge and it will trigger a cutscene with Liam Coronata and Matilda Vermentino. Liam will give you the “Wine Wars: Coronata” quest and Matilda will give you the “Wine Wars: Vementino” quest.

2. Start with Matilda’s quest and when you reach the objective that contains the elegant letter guarded by archespores. You have to kill the plants and then search the camp for said letter. Then halt progress on this quest IMEDIATELY.
For Vementino the position of the letter is next to the river, east of Castel Ravello and north of Corvo Bianco

3. Switch your quest to “Wine Wars: Coronata”. The Letter on this mission is located between Trading Post and Coronata Vineyard. On this one, you also have to kill archespores and search the campside.

4. Read both letters and a new quest will trigger. It’s called “Wine Wars: The Deus in the Machina.” Switch over to this quest right away. [b]Do not continue either Coronata nor Vementino. If you progress any further with either of the previous Wine Wars quests, you will miss the achievement (see note below).

5. After completing the main objective of “Wine Wars: The Deus in the Machina,” return to Liam and Matilda and they will give you a new quest entitled “Wine Wars: Consorting.”

6. Return to Liam and Matilda again once you’re done and after a short cutscene, you will get another new quest: “Wine Wars: Belgraad.” Complete this quest.
Once the five objectives have been completed, wait or meditate for three full days and then go see Liam and Matilda.

7. When you return, they will reward generously (they name a wine after you!) and the achievement will finally unlock.


NOTE: This achievement is missable because if you fully complete either Liam’s or Matilda’s individual Wine Wars quest, only one of them receive Belgraad vineyard and you won’t have a wine named after you. Thus, make sure to stop progress on both “Wine Wars: Coronata” and “Wine Wars: Vermentino” after reading the letter in each quest.

Got the achievement no problem but slightly differently to the guide. I completed both sides' initial quests to 5/5, despite the "Deus in the Machina" quest popping up part way through the first one. As long as you don't then "complete" one of those quests by then speaking to either Liam or Matilda it's fine. I then did the Deus in the Machina quest, spoke to the people, and the "Wine Wars : Consorting" quest mentioned in the guide didn't even appear presumably because I'd already completed the requirements in the initial quests. The Belgraad quest then came up, after which I got the achievement after the waiting for 3 days and speaking to them again.

The achievement is only missable if you fully complete one of the initial two quests by speaking to Liam or Matilda. Doing 5/5 of the requirements in either or both isn't a problem, you absolutely don't have to stop progressing them as soon as you pick up the letter and the other quest pops up as the guide says.
