Details and technical informations about Winery Liapis's Red.
Discover the grape variety: Barras
Simple and fruity light reds with a clear ruby robe, soft tannins and an airy palate with moderate acidity, showing undemonstrative aromas of red fruits. Now almost extinct from commercial cultivation, preserved in INRAE ampelographic collections, it bears witness to the varietal diversity of the pre-phylloxera South-West vineyard. Rare French black grape, once cultivated in the South-West.

The word of the wine: Presses
The juice that results from pressing the grapes after fermentation. At the end of the maceration, the vats are emptied, the first juice obtained is called the free-run wine and the marc remaining at the bottom of the vat is then pressed to give the press wine. We say more quickly "the presses". Their quality varies according to the vintage and the maceration. A too vigorous extraction releases the tannins of pips and the wine of press can then prove to be very astringent. Often the winemaker raises it separately, deciding later whether or not to incorporate it totally or partially into the grand vin.
