“And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.”
The angel swung his sickle on the earth, gathered its grapes and threw them into the great winepress of the wrath of God - the grapes (the ungodly) are gathered and cast into God's winepress of judgment. This imagery, drawn from Isaiah 63, transforms the vintage into an instrument of divine retribution.
