The role of yeast in winemaking is the most important element that distinguishes wine from fruit juice. In the absence of oxygen, yeast converts the sugars of the fruit into alcohol and carbon dioxide through the process of fermentation. [1] The more sugars in the grapes, the higher the potential alcohol level of the wine if the yeast are ...
Clarification and stabilization of wine. The winemaking process naturally produces sediments that can precipitate out of the wine. In winemaking, clarification and stabilization are the processes by which insoluble matter suspended in the wine is removed before bottling. This matter may include dead yeast cells (lees), bacteria, tartrates ...
