Adopted

Acidification by electromembrane treatment - Bipolar membrane electrodialysis

II.3.1.1.4 Acidification by electromembrane treatment (bipolar membrane electrodialysis)

Definition:

Physical method for ionic extraction in wine under the action of an electric field using membranes permeable only to cations on the one hand, and bipolar membranes on the other hand, and enabling an increase of titratable acidity and actual acidity (decrease of the pH).

Objectives:

Treatment with ion exchangers

II.3.1.1.3 Treatment with ion exchangers

Definition:

Operation consisting of passing the wine through a column of polymerised resin that acts as an insoluble polyelectrolyte whose ions are able to be exchanged with ions of the wine. According to their polar groupings, ion exchange resins are categorised as cation exchangers and anion exchangers.

Objectives :

Warm post fermentation maceration of red grapes called warm final maceration

II.2.3.9 Warm post fermentation maceration of red grapes called warm final maceration

Definition:

Procedure involving the prolonging of fermentative maceration using a warm post-fermentation maceration.

Objectives

a)        Complete the release of skin compounds carried out by pre-fermentative and fermentative maceration.
