Wine Making | Winemaking Process

Wine contains from two to four times as much alcohol as beer.

Most of the wine is made in : California, France, and Germany because grapes grow better in these countries than elsewhere.

Wine may be made from the juice of any fruit, but the grape is generally used.

The grapes after being picked are thrown into large tubs and crushed so that the juice runs out.

The wild yeast always present on the grape skins begins to grow in the juice and change some of the sugar into alcohol.

This work of the yeast lasts from one to eight weeks. At the end of that time, the grape juice has become a kind of poor wine, consisting of alcohol, water, grape flavor, and some acid. To make the wine good it must be drawn off into casks, where the yeast causes further changes during several weeks.

It is then put into bottles, where it should remain about five years to get the right flavor.
