There are many processes behind the scenes when winemaking, some more complex than others. We thought it would be interesting to present what is meant by "racking" and "fining" the wine. In this episode Jeff Booth of Jeff Booth Consulting describes the why, when, and how of the various methods used to clarify the wine. I suppose you could say that we're going to clarify wine clarification!
