Malolactic fermentation

The main winemaking operation is alcoholic fermentation. For red wines, when this is finished and the yeasts die, bacteria take over and consume the malic acid in the wine to transform it into lactic acid.

This results in a reduction in acidity, stabilization and softening of the wine.

> Temperatures, a key factor in winemaking
