ABSTRACT:
A process and equipment for the controlled malolactic fermentation of wine in which wine is introduced into a reaction vessel containing a concentration of at least 10.sup.8 cfu/ml of a bacterial or yeast species that is capable of converting malic acid to lactic acid through a bacteria retaining filter. The wine is removed from the reaction vessel through a bacteria retaining filter after a predetermined residence time in the reaction vessel sufficient to allow the desired malolactic fermentation to take place. The process and equipment are preferably operated on a continuous basis. The cells may be immobilized within the reaction vessel.
