ABSTRACT:
Vinification apparatus is disclosed as including at least one vat containing a fermenting must, at the upper level of which is formed a hat of solid components. A cooling and heating mechanism includes a pump and conduits for withdrawing at least a part of the must and, after thermal exchange, reinjecting the must into the vat. The thermal conditioning, whether heating or cooling, is controlled to establish a predetermined temperature gradient in space within the vat and predetermined temperature variations in time, whereby the quality of produced wine may be controlled accordingly.
