What elements are wine made up of?

Answer 1

When done properly... happiness.

In short, the sugar is eaten by yeast in the unfermented mix (sugar, yeast, water and acid), and by an enzyme process converted to CO2 bubbles (carbon dioxide) and alcohol. I there is an overabundance of alcohol, too little or too much acid, too much or no sugar - the fermentation will stop.

The grape happens to contain everything for the fermentation process in 1 package. When harvested, the grape has a bit of local yeast on the skin, the skin itself adds the proper amount of acid (tartaric, malic and citric) and the sugar/water balance should be good too. If the local yeast is not the specific type you want you can wash / sterilize the grapes and then add your own. Local yeast combined with local grape chemistry is how regional wines happened.

Answer 2

Freshly expressed Grape Juice consists of 70 to 80% water and many dissolved solids.

These soluble solids include numerous organic and inorganic compounds. The important

group of compounds, from the wine making point of view, include the following:

sugars, organic acids, phenolic compounds, nitrogenous compounds, aroma compounds, minerals, pectic substances
