   While the "Bordeaux blend" of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot created the earliest examples of acclaimed Cabernet Sauvignon wine, Cabernet Sauvignon was first blended in Bordeaux with Syrah (from the Northern Rhone), a pairing that is widely seen in Australia and some vin de pays wines from the Languedoc.

3. Fermentation in winemaking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermentation_in_winemaking

   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.

4. Maceration (wine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maceration_(wine)

   Cabernet Sauvignon musts interact with the skins during fermentation to add color, tannins and flavor to the wine. Most red wine grapes have their color concentrated in the skin, while the juice is much lighter in color. The duration of contact between the crushed grape skins and their juice impacts the final color and flavor profile.

5. Malolactic fermentation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malolactic_fermentation

   Malolactic fermentation can aid in making a wine "microbiologically stable" in that the lactic acid bacteria consume many of the leftover nutrients that other spoilage microbes could use to develop wine faults. However, it can also make the wine slightly "unstable" due to the rise in pH, especially if the wine already was at the high end of ...

6. Clarification and stabilization of wine - Wikipedia

   In surface filtration, the wine passes through a thin membrane. Running the wine parallel to the filter surface, known as cross-flow filtration, will minimize the filter clogging. The finest surface filtration, microfiltration, can sterilize the wine by trapping all yeast and, optionally, bacteria, and so is often done immediately prior to ...
