White Wine Making: An Overview
The term white wine does not necessarily refer to the color of the grapes used. White wine can be made from red or even very dark colored grapes. What is important is that the fleshy part which is clear in appearance is separated or has limited contact with the skin during juicing to ensure that a clear juice is produced.
Winemaking, also called vinification refers to the production of wines. There are three basic steps in winemaking: preparation, fermentation and maturation.
Preparation
Grapes are carefully picked from the vineyard. It is important that they are picked at the right age and at the right time, this ensures that the chemical composition of the fruit is in the right balance. Such factors contribute in t he production of a good wine.
After picking, the grapes are cleaned and checked for bruises. Bruised grapes are then set aside, they are no longer suitable to make wine. All skins, seeds and stems are removed before juicing. The result, a clear juice perfect for making white wine.
Fermentation
This is the process of adding live yeast to the juice. The yeast turns the sugar content of the juice into alcohol. Fermentation may last for three to four weeks.
Maturation
Also known as aging, this is the process of storing wine to further develop its flavor and aroma. Wines can be stored in barrels, steel vats or directly in bottles. The important thing is that wines are stored away from sunlight.
Whether white, red or rose wine; the dedication and patience exerted in its production is something which should truly be appreciated of a fine drink.
