Fixing, or remediating, the flaws in wine is often a challenge for many winemakers.
Flaws can appear at various stages in wine’s production. Knowing how to address the flaw in a timely manner is only half of the battle. (One of the most routine practices I see amongst winemakers all over the country is the ability to avoid dealing with a problem wine.) 😉 The second half of the battle is knowing which steps to apply to the wine and when to apply those remediation techniques to best serve the wine’s quality.
After years of training winemakers to better identify and communicate wine flaws, I’m now going to switch gears in providing this webinar series on fixing wine flaws and preventing them in your winery.
This is a different take on wine flaws, but it is an obvious hurdle that many people will have to overcome in order to improve wine quality. (Trust me, everyone deals with flaws at some point in their wine career.) Knowing what to do, and when to apply those treatments, is an important component of wine flaw remediation.
Plus, taking this course will keep you from guessing which enological products are going to “save the day” for the wine in question. This 2-day webinar series will provide you with the following information:
- How to confirm there is a flaw in the wine. Again, while some flaws are subjective, we’ll focus on those that can be analytically evaluated and confirmed. This can eliminate guess work associated with the flaw, even if your sensory skills are lacking.
- Remediation techniques associated with wine operations. What do you have to do to the wine? How do you confirm the treatment is effective? And when do you apply treatments to the wine? The goal of this part of the series is to provide encouragement to face wine flaws head on and in a timely manner. This part of the conversation will include protocols for remediating flaws.
- A review of prevention protocols. How can you improve? Do you need to go out and buy a glycol unit tomorrow in order to prevent wine flaws? No. Often, wineries can get by minimizing flaws through habitual practices, and I’m going to share what some of those practices should be for your operation!
If you’re ready to learn the techniques I use to fix flaws, then come join us! All winemaking experience levels are welcome.
