It is stated by Michael Deakin as follows: A mixture is known to contain a mix of wine and water in proportions such that the amount of wine divided by the amount of water is a ratio x {\displaystyle x} lying in the interval 1 / 3 ≤ x ≤ 3 {\displaystyle 1/3\leq x\leq 3} (i ...
The natural occurrence of fermentation means it was probably first observed long ago by humans. [3] The earliest uses of the word "fermentation" in relation to winemaking was in reference to the apparent "boiling" within the must that came from the anaerobic reaction of the yeast to the sugars in the grape juice and the release of carbon dioxide.
While there is disagreement over exactly how much water stress is beneficial in development grapes for quality wine production, most viticulturist agree that some water stress can be beneficial. The grapevines in many Mediterranean climates such as Tuscany in Italy and the Rhone Valley in France experience natural water stress due to the ...
