A standard size (60 gallon/ 225 liter) oak barrel
Barrique
Letting the newly- pressed juice settle for a day or two before fermentation is allowed to begin
De’bourbage
Adding sugar to the must before fermentation begins
Chaptalization
Allowing the wine to rest on the dead yeast cells after fermentation has completed
Sur Lie Aging
The stirring up of the dead yeast cells back into the liquid
Batonnage
Grape juice, or the mixture of grape juice, seeds, and skins, that will be fermented and transformed into wine
Must
A chemical by-product of malolactic fermentation that imparts a buttery aroma to wine
Diacetyl
An enzymatic fermentation that occurs in the absences of oxygen within whole, unbroken grapes
Carbonic Maceration
Considered to be the highest quality juice in the batch
Free Run
The cake of compressed grape skins and seeds that remains behind after the final pressing of the juice or wine
Pomace
The use of gravity to remove suspended matter in a batch of newly fermented wine
Racking
A clarification technique that uses an inert material to attract and bind to unwanted materials
