The word of the wine: Maceration
Prolonged contact and exchange between the juice and the grape solids, especially the skin. Not to be confused with the time of fermentation, which follows maceration.

For white wines too, a "pellicular maceration" can be practised, which allows the wine to acquire more fat.
