À Propos de Cette Méthode
Allowing freshly pressed juice to sit for 12-48 hours so solids settle by gravity before fermentation begins. Critical for white and rosé wines to remove grape skin particles, pulp, and other debris that could cause off-flavors. Temperature is kept low to prevent spontaneous fermentation.
