Fermentation is the next step in the winemaking process, and vessels change according to what you seek in your wine. It can be either a stainless steel, wood or concrete container, or even an amphora jar. The choice affects the fermentation temperature, which is harder to control depending on the material. White wines ferment under lower temperatures than red ones because the cold helps maintain their fruity flavors and colors. Either way, fermentation at low temperatures helps extract a more flavory taste out of the wine.

After fermentation, the wine goes to a tank or barrel, where it ages. Maturation develops complex aromas and smoother tastes. The next step is to bottle the aged wine.

You can choose different winemaking supplies for packaging. One possibility is to opt for cartons with partitions, for instance, to avoid damaging the bottles. You can find both preformed partitions and non-preformed partitions; have in mind that the latter saves costs and still protects your bottles from crashing against each other. The packaging process of wrapping the bottles can be automated from the very opening of the carton.
