Services

We can provide a full contract winemaking service for stills, sparkling and natural wines, covering every aspect of wine making, from receiving your crates of grapes, to dispatching cases of wine to your clients

We have six presses across both sites and run two shifts during harvest, ensuring that we can press fruit when it is ready to pick. With temperature controlled tanks ranging in size from 1,000L to 20,000L we can meet the needs of a range of clients

We have invested in a Pall cross flow filter, to ensure we can provide gentle filtration with minimal losses; and a hybrid filter for filtering smaller batches

We have multiple gyros for riddling and can disgorge half, standard bottles and magnums. We also have jetting and fill height detection, to ensure consistency and quality control

We can bottle still (cork, screw cap and vinolok) and sparkling (bidule and crown cap) wines. We can apply foils, capsules, front, back and neck labels

We have temperature controlled secure bonded storage. These stores are separate, allowing us to adjust the temperature for wines going through secondary fermentation

For cold stabilisation we either use KHT and insulated tanks to chill wines down; or CMC. We also have a portable chiller unit to cold stabilise smaller volumes

We offer a range of lab services. In addition to an OenoFoss machine, we have a dissolved oxygen and CO2 meter; a spectrophotometer; heat bath; centrifuge; and can run wet chemistry including sulphurs by aspiration

We can help with sourcing wine and grapes. In the first instance, see our site: www.wineandgrapetrading.co.uk
