Extended maceration is the wine making process where red wine is left in contact with the grape skins after fermentation is complete. This technique is employed when a winemaker wishes to modify the amount, and types, of tannin present when pressing the wine to barrel. It may seem counterintuitive but this extended amount of time in contact with the skins, seeds, and stems can actually soften the tannin structure of a wine that finishes fermentation with an elevated sharp tannin structure.

During the wine making process, all fermentations slow down as they reach their end, and some of those need a little help - find out how we get them to finish.

During fermentation, sugars are consumed and alcohol levels rise. Combined with other byproducts of wine fermentation, this creates a fairly hostile environment for the yeast culture to finish its work of consuming all the available sugar. Some fermentations need a little help reaching dryness. This is typically done by increasing the health, or volume, of the yeast culture in that fermentation.
