Topless - less blushing

Stainless steel fermentation vats from above, removable tops for pigeage (punching down of the cap) and for inspection. Most stainless fermentation vats are closed-tops but sometime they have removable tops. This can improve colour and flavour extraction. (And make sure the wine does not look like, in american parlance, blush wine.)

Domaine Yves Cuilleron, Chavanay, Ampuis, Rhone, France, Europe.
