Harvesting grapes during the wine season
"Hauptlese" is nothing to do with reading, but means "(main) harvest" in this context.
"Vorlese"? I have not found one reference to the word on all my main sources which does not refer to "reading" in some context or other. They all sound wrong to me.
"Lese" is a "harvest". But a "pre-harvest" or similar? I have never encountered such an expression.

Early vintage or early harvest wines
"Experts say that due to the climate change, it is easy to note that every time we harvest earlier. It may be true, but in this case, it will affect equally to all productions more or less, so we could not then talk of early vintage wines." http://blog.uvinum.co.uk/early-harvest-wines-2284486

'DIE TRAUBENREIFE
Bereits am Ende des Sommers prüft der Winzer den Zustand des Traubengutes auf seinen Entwicklungs-und Reifegrad. Trauben, die ihrer Zeit bereits voraus sind und schon vor dem Beginn der offiziellen Lese, die überall in der Alten Welt von Amts wegen festgelegt wird, zur Reife gelangen, können in einer Vorlese geerntet werden, denn sie würden sonst schnell in die Überreife übergehen, zu Boden fallen und Schädlinge anziehen.'

early harvest of Silvaner from our first class vineyards
Most of the "first class" vineyards of the 1861 classification were made into Grand Cru appellations d'origine contrôlées when the national AOC legislation was implemented in 1936.[1]
ERSTE LAGE designates first-class vineyards with an autonomous profile.
