stages of wine making
More Than Wine Wine
Harvesting
The moment at which the grapes are picked from the vineyard is what determines the sweetness, flavor and acidity of the wine.
Clarification
Wine is transferred into stainless steel tanks or oak barrels where the tannins, proteins and dead yeast is removed from the wine.
Fermentation
Winemakers add cultured yeast to the must to predict the final outcome and ensure consistency. This process continues until all the sugar is transformed into alcohol, resulting in the production of dry wine.
Aging and Bottling
Wine is aged in oak barrels, stainless steel tanks or bottles. Once the aging process finishes, the wine is then bottled with screw cap or cork.
