I've heard of winemakers removing a small amount of must prior to
fermentation. They add it back to the wine later to enhance flavour. A couple questions: 1. How much is a reasonable amount? A cup? A litre? 2. Storage tips? Presumably frozen in a sanitized plastic pop container. 3. At what stage in the process is the juice added back? 4. Is there a meaningful bouquet/flavour benefit to this procedure? 5. Sorbate required? I assume yes. 6. I assume this will produce an "off dry" wine. Would this procedure then be undesirable for most reds? I guess that was more than "a couple" questions. Thanks, Jim |
