A study was able to quantify parameters (sugar content, ph, tannin vitamin b l, and pectin) that affect wine making, during fermentation. The yeast cells feed on 'the sugats.in the must and multiply, producing carbon dioxide gas and alcohol. Tannins play a big role in wine processing for example stabilization of colour, increasing aging potential, modifying aromas, Pectin cells cause haze in wine making clarification difficult and expensive, Titratable acidity is applied to sensory perception of a wine's acidity i.e. its tartness, sourness, crispness.
