ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus are disclosed for producing wine by full carbonic maceration in which whole uncrushed grapes are placed in a closable container to a depth that the grapes remain whole, the air within the container is expelled to produce a substantially anaerobic atmosphere in which the grapes undergo intra-cellular fermentation. The containers comprise sealable plastic bags that incorporate a one way valve to allow release but not entry of gases. The container preferably contains solid CO.sub.2 to expel air by vaporization of the solid CO.sub.2.
