The most common reason for sediment in your wine is leftover yeast.. Grape juice is fermented into wine with yeast, which transforms the sugars into alcohol.This can happen when yeast is added to the juice, known as inoculated yeast, or with a wild, natural yeast from the air or leftover from the grape skins, known as ambient or indigenous yeast.. Once the yeast completes fermentation, the dead yeast cells, or “lees,” remain in the barrel or tank.

The lees will settle to the bottom over time, which makes it easy to separate for bottling.Again, this process typically happens by chilling the tanks down.. “I will drop as many solids to the bottom of the tank as I can, then I basically decant the wine off of the top of the lees,” says Daniel O’Brien, founder and winemaker at.in Sonoma, California.

“There is a good chance some could end up in the bottle, but I try to make it clear.I do end up leaving a decent amount of wine behind when it’s time to bottle, but I find that it delivers a better finished wine.

I don’t want to put the wine through filters.”.
