Winemaking\u00a0or\u00a0vinification\u00a0is the production of\u00a0wine, starting with the selection of the fruit, its\u00a0fermentation into alcohol, and the bottling of the finished liquid. The\u00a0history of wine-making stretches over millennia. The science of wine and winemaking is known as oenology. A winemaker\u00a0may also be called a vintner. The growing of grapes is\u00a0viticulture\u00a0and there are\u00a0many varieties of grapes.<\/p>

Winemaking can be divided into two general categories: still wine production (without carbonation) and\u00a0sparkling wine production\u00a0(with carbonation\u00a0\u2013 natural or injected).\u00a0Red wine,\u00a0white wine, and\u00a0ros\u00e9\u00a0are the other main categories. Although most wine is made from\u00a0grapes, it may also be made from other plants. (See\u00a0fruit wine.) Other similar light alcoholic drinks (as opposed to\u00a0beer\u00a0or\u00a0spirits) include\u00a0mead, made by fermenting honey and water, and\u00a0kumis, made of fermented mare’s milk.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Crushing is the process when gently squeezing the berries and breaking the skins to start to liberate the contents of the berries. Destemming is the process of removing the grapes from the rachis (the stem which holds the grapes). In traditional and smaller-scale wine making, the harvested grapes are sometimes crushed by trampling them barefoot or by the use of inexpensive small scale crushers.<\/p>

These can also destem at the same time. However, in larger wineries, a mechanical crusher\/destemmer is used. The decision about destemming is different for red and white wine making. Generally when making white wine the fruit is only crushed, the stems are then placed in the press with the berries. The presence of stems in the mix facilitates pressing by allowing juice to flow past flattened skins. These accumulate at the edge of the press.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
