Q

What is the advantage of whole bunch pressing?

A
  • it is gentle and therefore less extraction of phenolics (tannin and anthocyanin) and solids
  • stems act as a drainage channel for juices to run thus minimising pressure needed in the press

Q

What are press fractions?

A

-parts of the pressed juice differentiated by the pressure at which they were pressed from the grapes
(extra info: the first press fraction has the intermediate zone of the pulp , the next is the central zone close to the seeds and the last is the primary zone next to the skin - hardest to press as attached to skin so releases the most phenolics from the skin)

A
  • the fermentation happens in a closed tank to ensure the effervescence isnt lost to the atmosphere
  • the temperature is reduced to halt fermentation
  • transfer partially fermented must to the bottle

charmat wines have primary fruit aromas at the fore without the brioche flavors of traditional method wines
-charmat spends no time ageing on the lees and therefore no bready aromas

119

A

aromatic (eg muscat) and semi aromatic (eg glera) grapes

120
Q

Charmat Method:

closed tank is used

121

yes it is added to kick start the second fermentation

123
Q

Charmat Method:

What is the main difference between the traditional and tank method?

A
  • no riddling
  • no disgorgement
  • all activities occur in tanks until the final bottling before shipping
124
Q

Charmat Method:

How is first fermentation arrested?

A

By lowering the temperature to 2 to 4oC

125
Q

Charmat Method:

The second fermentation takes place in what vessel ?

A

126
Q

Charmat Method:

What is cold stabilisation and how is it used after the second fermentation?

A

-tartaric acid tends to combine with potassium or occasionally calcium to form potassium bitrate or calcium bitrate (harmless but unsightly). Cooling the wine to -2oC for 8 days before bottling makes them less soluble, they form crystals and are easy to filter out.

127

Does lees ageing ever occur in charmat method wine and when does it occur?

A

yes. after the second fermentation. The wine is agitated with a paddle to increase contact of lees with the wine. It is unusual as the styles wanted in this method are usually fruity

128
Q

Charmat Method:

To what temperature is the wine chilled to halt the secondary fermentation?

A

2-4oC

129
Q

Charmat Method:

At what temperature is the tank held during any lees ageing?

A

2-4oC

130
Q

Charmat Method:

What advantages are lost during the lees ageing?

A

-expensive pressurised tanks are tied up for long periods which incurs extra cost…more like the traditional method

131
Q

Charmat Method:

After 2nd fermentation (or lees ageing) and cold stabilisation ,how are the tartrates and yeast removed?

A

-centrifugation or filtration

132
Q

Charmat Method:

What happens between the yeast removal and sterile filtration? What is checked and adjusted?

A

-sugar levels and SO2

133
Q

Charmat Method:

Why is the wine temperature reduced to -2oC before bottling?

A
  • To reduced effervescence and therefore loss of CO2 from the wine
  • To stabilise the wine
134
Q

Charmat Method:

Bottles are filled with CO2 and then the wine is introduced to the bottle. What is this procedure and why is it used?

A
  • Counter Pressure Filling

- Stops the entrance of oxygen to the bottle and decreases the loss of CO2 from the wine

135
Q

Asti Method:

How many fermentations does the method require?

A

-one

136
Q

Asti Method:

Does the sugar that ferments causing the CO2 come from tirage?

A

-no, from the must itself

137
Q

Asti Method:

The must is fermented in the same type of vessel as the Charmat Method. What is the vessel?

A

pressurised tank

138
Q

Asti Method:

What happens through the first stage of fermentation and how does it differ to the Charmat method?

A

tank valve is open allowing the carbon dioxide to escape

139
Q

Asti Method:

What happens in the second stage of fermentation?

A

the valve is closed and so CO2 can no longer escape the tank

140
Q

Asti Method:

What happens to sugar levels as pressure rises in the tank?

A

sugar levels fall as pressure continues to rise

141
Q

Asti Method:

When is the fermentation halted?

A

when desired sugar and pressure levels are reached

142
Q

Asti Method:

What happens rapidly to stop fermentation?

A

the wine is chilled

143
Q

Asti Method:

What happens after the wine is chilled and before bottling?

A

the wine is filtered

144
Q

Carbonation:

What is carbonation in wine?

A

Carbon dioxide is injected into the base wine

145
Q

Carbonation:

What is the carbonation methods key disadvantages?

A
  • the bubbles in fully carbonated wine are short lived

- it is the least prestigious method of producing sparkling wines and so cannot command a high price

146
Q

Carbonation:

What is the carbonation methods key advantages?

A
  • it does not affect the aromatics of the base wine so great for fruity wines
  • bubbles persist long enough for pétillant wines
147
Q

What does sparkling wine do to wine faults?

A

accentuates them by bringing them quickly up to the nose so HEALTHY FRUIT must be used
