Your Sorting Options
September 19, 2022

We can undoubtedly all agree that the best wines are produced from the best grapes, but what about all of the other stuff that can follow the grapes into the fermenter?

The first essential step in the winemaking process starts at the reception of the fruits with SORTING. There are many options for sorting fruits and berries at the winery, we are here to help you find the right sorting method for your needs and winery.

The idea of sorting is to eliminate undesired grapes such as raisins, unripe berries or moldy berries and material other than grapes (also called MOG) such as branches, leaves, snails etc. This can be done with operators on a sorting tables, with densimetric sorting, optical sorting, also simply with a good destemmer.

Delta Oscillys Destemmer

Delta OSCILLYS ensures an efficient and qualitative destemming. This new technology of destemming with a pendulum swing allows to preserve the integrity of the berries (and thus limit the production of juice and vegetal characters), preserve the state of stems (no break, no grinding up), fully separate the grapes from stems, and remove shot berries, verjus, dry grapes, unriped grapes which remains on the stems. Delta OSCILLYS is five to ten times more qualitative than traditional destemmer. The residual vegetal parts are around 0.2 - 0.5% against 2 - 4.5% with a traditional destemmer.

The Delta OSCILLYS destemmer is also known as very quick to wash after use, which allow the operator to save time, labor and also the winery to be more sustainable and reduce its water usage.
