Winery Control Workshop- Stabilize your wine- Filtration, SO2 and Potassium Sorbate
August 2, 2016
9:00am-4:00pm
Portland, NY
The use of sulfur dioxide and filtration to ensure bottle stability is a common practice within the wine industry. However, many producers also use potassium sorbate additions to inhibit re-fermentation of sweetened wines despite sulfur dioxide additions and utilization of sterile filtration. Enology experts from both Cornell and Penn State Universities will review how to best accomplish wine stability in the winery so that producers can improve production decisions. Attendees will walk away with a better understanding of how sulfur dioxide and potassium sorbate work in wine, what filtration accomplishes for wine stability, and how to implement quality control practices to ensure that wines are of minimal spoilage risk post-bottling. This workshop will also include a wine tasting to emphasize identification of the flavor associated with potassium sorbate additions and how it affects wine quality. The $50 includes all registration materials and lunch. This workshop is focused for winemakers, cellar staff, and enologists as it contains a production focus.
