THE YOUNG WINEMAKERS.

EACH OF US HAS BROUGHT A CLUSTER OF GRAPES.WE HAVE A HARD JOB: TO TURN GRAPES INTO WINE

FIRST WE SEPARATE THE BERRIES FROM THE STEMS.

WE BEGIN TO PRESS THE GRAPES WITH OUR HANDS

OUR HANDS ARE ALL STICKY AND SMELL LIKE GRAPE JUICE. WE ARE HAVING FUN!!!!

THE PRESSED JUICE IS VIOLET, DARK, HOT, STICKY. WE TASTED: IT’S SWEET AND JUICY. THE SCENT IS PLEASANT.

WE PUT THE JUICE, SKINS AND PIPS IN A TRANSPARENT POT….

…. AND LET'S WAIT A FEW DAYS

AFTER 4 DAYS

TODAY IN CLASS WE HAVE FOUND A VERY STRONG SMELL.

THE SKINS AND SEEDS ROSE ALL UP. THE LIQUID IS ALWAYS PURPLE AND TURBID; ON THE BOTTOM OF THE POT IT IS DEPOSITED A DENSER MATERIAL: THE SCUM

WE SEPARATE THE JUICE FROM THE SKINS SQUEEZING WELL WITH OUR HANDS…

…HOW BEAUTIFUL !!! IT IS GREAT

IN THE POT THERE IS

NOW ONLY A TURBID AND SOUR

JUICE

AFTER 13 DAYS… THE MUST

THIRTEEN DAYS HAVE PASSED SINCE WE MADE THE HARVEST. IN CLASS THERE IS A STRONG SMELL OF WINE SEEMS TO BE IN THE CELLAR.

DURING THESE DAYS WE HAVE SEEN SO MANY BUBBLES RISE TO THE SURFACE AND FORMED A LAYER OF WHITE FOAM. WHILE THE BOTTOM OF THE POT THERE IS ALSO GROWING A LAYER OF SCUM.

THE TEACHER WITH THE STRAINER AND FUNNEL POURED THE JUICE IN A BOTTLE.IN THIS PERIOD WILL CONTINUE FERMENTATION AND SOME MICROORGANISMS CALLED SACCHAROMYCES CONVERT SUGAR INTO ALCOHOL.THE FERMENTATION WILL LAST A FEW MORE DAYS, BECAUSE AS THE SAYING GOES:

"A SAN MARTINO OGNI MOSTO DIVENTA VINO."

HERE IS THE LABEL THAT WE CREATED FOR OUR BOTTLES OF WINE.THE NAME FOR THE WINE WE CHOSE AFTER A DEMOCRATIC VOTE AMONG THREE NAMES WE HAD THOUGHT:RODARCINCIN, UVINOTTO, UBRIACHIN
