Use of mathematical laws for optimizing the dose of swollen and dry bentonite during the fining of white wines. Part II : influence on the volume of lies and economics
A Sauvignon white wine was fined with a dry bentonite (BS), e.g directly incorporated in the wine without swelling treatment, or with the same bentonite swelled in water 24 hours before utilization (BG). The volumes of lees generated by the fining were situated between 0,27 and 1,51 % (v/v) for BS,...
