Về phương pháp này

Regularly stirring lees in barrel or tank to maximize yeast-wine contact. This increases body, roundness, and creamy texture. Frequency varies from weekly to monthly. Over-stirring can produce reductive off-flavors. A key technique in premium white Burgundy and oaked Chardonnay production.
