Red Grape Pressing Day!! Using My Basket Press to Squash the Sangiovese Ferment!!

How exciting! The day has come a touch early - The Sangiovese Grapes have given a near dry wine (SG = 1.016 ish), but the tannin is through the roof. To combat this, I prepare to press early, just to get the wine off the skins. The process went smoothly, with little mess and gave rise to a HUGE amount of wine (recall I received 4 "mystery boxes" of red grapes, about 8-9 kg per box). Enjoy!
The channel discusses how to make chateau style wines from grapes, including details on fermentation, wines in general, wine making from grapes, brewing, wine making techniques, stomping grapes / grape stomping and much much more.

Hey man love the series thanks for sharing. One little tip if i may, put a little wedge under the front legs of the press when switching out bottles. That'll stop the flow briefly until you're ready to continue. Here's to another wine season. Cheers!
