How is White Wine Made? An Explainer by Primal Wine

White wine production begins with selecting grape varieties like Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling, and Pinot Grigio. The key stages in winemaking include harvesting, crushing and pressing, fermentation, aging, and bottling.

  1. Harvesting: Timing is crucial to ensure optimal acidity and sugar levels in the grapes.
  2. Crushing and Pressing: Grapes are crushed and pressed to separate the juice from the skins and seeds, as most white wines do not ferment with their skins.
  3. Fermentation: The grape juice (must) ferments, with yeast converting sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide. For white wines, fermentation typically occurs at cooler temperatures to preserve delicate aromatics.
  4. Aging: White wines may age in stainless steel tanks, concrete vats, or oak barrels, influencing their flavor and texture.
  5. Bottling: After aging, wines are clarified, stabilized, and bottled.


Light-Bodied White Wines

Light-bodied white wines, like Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Grigio, are known for their crisp acidity and vibrant flavors. These wines often undergo fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve their fresh, fruity character.

  • Example: New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc is renowned for its zesty acidity and notes of lime, green apple, and passion fruit.


Full-Bodied White Wines

Full-bodied white wines, such as Chardonnay, are characterized by their rich, creamy textures and complex flavors. These wines often undergo malolactic fermentation (MLF) and are aged in oak barrels, which impart flavors of butter, vanilla, and spice.

  • Example: California Chardonnay, particularly from Napa Valley, is famous for its full body, buttery mouthfeel, and flavors of ripe tropical fruits.


Age-Worthy White Wines

Age-worthy white wines have high acidity and phenolic content, allowing them to develop complexity over time. Riesling and Chenin Blanc are classic examples, often aged in bottle to enhance their flavor profiles.

  • Example: German Riesling, especially from the Mosel region, is known for its high acidity and potential to age gracefully, developing notes of petrol, honey, and dried fruits.


Young and Fresh White Wines

These wines are crafted to be consumed shortly after release, emphasizing fruit-forward flavors and crisp acidity. They are usually fermented in stainless steel tanks and bottled soon after fermentation to preserve their freshness.

  • Example: Italian Pinot Grigio is typically light, crisp, and refreshing, with notes of citrus, green apple, and pear.


Sparkling White Wines

Like Champagne and Prosecco, sparkling white wines undergo a second fermentation to create bubbles. This can occur through the traditional method (in-bottle fermentation), the Ancestral method (Pét-Nat), or the Charmat/Martinotti method (in-tank fermentation).

  • Example: Champagne, made from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier, is celebrated for its fine bubbles and complex flavors derived from extended aging on the lees.
