	Winemaking - Bouchaine - Carneros - Napa Valley
		Winemaking at Bouchaine Vineyards in Carneros, Napa Valley is a dynamic process where diversity is created by tailoring vinification and cellar practices to the individual vineyard lots.
		As winemakers, our job is to encourage the grapes to give up as much as they can during the fermentation and to retain as much as possible until the wine is consumed.
		Winemaker Michael Richmond has also begun experimenting with Hungarian oak barrels from Trust International and finds their attributes to be desirable yet different from those of French oak barrels.

	Winemaking basics
		Winemaking is not complicated; nor, is it difficult.
		If the winemaker is making a white wine, the must is then pressed in order to separate the juice from the skins, seeds, and pulp which would give the wine an uncharacteristic color and taste.
		Whether the fermentation proceeds naturally or with the assistance of the winemaker, it will continue until all the natural sugar is consumed by the yeast and yields an an alcohol content of about 14%.
