After the alcoholic fermentation is over, the temperature is increased by a few degrees for just a few days. This post fermentation boost helps to extract more from the grape skin and creates an exquisite juice with smooth tannic texture that will really elevate your experience !

When making red wine, the fermentation process is one of the most important steps. This is when the grape juice is converted into alcohol.

🍷The alcoholic fermentation starts on the second day due to action in the yeast. After about 12 hours fermentation begins.

🍷CO2 that is released pushes the grape skins to the top of the vat forming a cap.

🍷Two to three times a day, part of the juice is pumped from the bottom of the vat up to pe*****te and flow through the cap.

🍷This pumping over needs to be gentle and low pressure in order to obtain the highest quality tannins to the wine.

🍷The cap is frequently broken through „pigeage“ as the juice tends to flow following the same paths through the cap.

🍷Care needs to be taken that the gentle spray reaches all areas of the cap, so this task is done manually.

🍷The interval of of pumping over is decreased as the fermentation proceeds and taken to a halt when the desired density of wine is achieved.

🍷Red wine gets its color from contact with grape skin during this process, which is why white wines do not undergo this step.

One of the unique aspects of wine making is the use of cold maceration (Part 2)

🍷In cold maceration, the grapes are cooled to a controlled temperature of 6 ° C for 3-5 days before fermentation begins.

🍷During the cold maceration the juice is pumped gently over the skins to ensure even temperature in the juice.

🍷Cold maceration allows for more color and aroma to be extracted from the skins into the wine!

Ever wondered what happens to all those grapes once they‘ve been picked? Follow along to find out! (part 1)

Work in the cellar begins when the grapes arrive at the entrance …

🍷The automated sorting table separates the grapes from any other material like leaves or little pieces of bunch stems.

🍷After this the grapes travel through the sorting table for further inspection. A drop through air blower jet removes the finest non grape elements.

🍷The berries land on the conveyer belt which transfers them to the top of the vinification vat, where the berries go through light crushing and then fall into the vat.

🍷Each vat is filled with berries of the same or highly similar parcel for optimal expression of terroir.

🍷Each vat is filled three quarters full without pumping, but only using gravity.
