MANAGING FERMENTATION FOR GREAT WINE – You can have great fruit and the right strain of yeast selected, but if you don’t manage your fermentation properly your wine will not reach its full potential. There are several critical interconnected elements involved in managing fermentation and their sum total has a direct affect on the outcome of the final wine. Find out how and why it is critical to understand and control temperature, nutrients, tannins and oxygen during your fermentation.
