These are trodden by foot to release enough juice for the alcoholic fermentation to begin, precipitated by the action of natural yeasts found in the atmosphère and on the bloom of the grape at harvest time. In the meantime the vats are filled almost to the top with more whole clusters. Their weight forces more juice to be released at the bottom. This initial phase of the alcoholic fermentation |
