peer agreement (net): +1person separating wine from leeches Explanation: after primary fermentation, wine is drawn off (svinato), separated from frementation deposits (leeches) and set in wooden or other vessel for the secondary fementation. The person who carries out the operation is called "svinatore" (a skilled job this). see sites Reference: http://utenti.lycos.it/vino5ab/svinatura.htm Reference: http://www.demauroparavia.it/ |

juice separator Explanation: The machine in verbis website looks like what is usually called a "sgrondatore" in Italian. This is confirmed by the French text ("tamisage" is the French for "sgrondatura" - Lexique de la Vigne e du Vin, Paris 1963). The process involves the mechanical separation of juice from grape residue by forcing it though a screen. HTH Giles -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 hrs 54 mins (2004-10-28 10:16:48 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Vittorio\'s suggestion prompts me to mention that \"svinatura\", which should refer to separating fermented must from the pomace (French \"décuvage\"), is sometimes used to mean \"sgrondatura\", the separation of unfermented juice from grape residue. Of course, since the juice is unfermented, it is not yet \"vino\", and so can\'t logically be \"svinato\", only \"sgrondato\"! |
