Red Wine Fermentation

An open fermentation vessel, containing red grape must fermenting on the skins to extract colour, complexity and aging potential. The wooden baton is used to stir the skins occasionally to increase contact, and to extract the tannins and anthocyanins which aid aging and provide the health benefits.

 

At Oinolpi Vineyard, Machairado, Zakynthos.
