The production of wines and sparkling wines involves a series of specific equipment for each stage of the process. Here are some of the common equipment used in winemaking:
Winemaking Equipment:
Destemmer/Juicer:
Removes the clusters from the grapes and, in some cases, squeezes the grapes to release the juice.
Press:
Used to extract additional juice from grapes, especially for white wines.
Fermentation Tanks:
For alcoholic fermentation, where grape juice turns into wine due to the action of yeast.
Stainless Steel Fermenters:
Modern tanks that offer precise temperature control during fermentation.
Oak Barrels:
Used to age wine and add flavors and aromas from oak.
Filters:
They remove unwanted particles from wine before bottling.
Transfer Pumps:
They move the wine between tanks and during the filtration process.
Thermal Exchange:
Equipment to control wine temperature during different stages, such as fermentation and storage.
Sulfiting Equipment:
Used for controlled addition of sulfur dioxide, a common preservative in wines.
Clarification Equipment:
They include centrifugal clarifiers or clarifying agents to remove sediment and particles from the wine.
Dosing Equipment:
For addition you need additives such as yeast, nutrients, etc.
Mills and Destemmers-Sieves:
They prepare the grapes for fermentation by de-stemming and crushing them.
Pigeage Bombs:
Used for "pigeage" or "punch-down", which is the practice of pushing grape skins down into the must during fermentation.
Specific Equipment for Sparkling Wines:
Special Presses for Sparkling Wines:
They can be used to press grapes in a more delicate way, especially for the production of base wines for sparkling wines.
Fermentation Tanks for Sparkling Wines:
They allow controlled fermentation for the production of sparkling wines.
Sparkling Wine Bottlers:
Specific bottlers, often with valves for injecting carbon dioxide.
Autolysis Cages:
Used during the traditional method (or champenoise) for aging and autolysis of yeasts in bottles.
Bottleneck Washers and Freezers:
They prepare bottles for adding expedition liquor and avoid losses during the sediment freezing process.
Expedition Liquor Vats:
For the preparation of expedition liqueur, a mixture of sugar and wine that is added to sparkling wine before being sealed. These are just a few examples, and the choice of equipment may vary depending on the size of the production, specific winemaking methods and the characteristics desired for the wine or sparkling wine. |
