Carbonic Maceration
Type of rapid, whole-berry fermentation carried out in a sealed container. The technique is designed to yield a wine with bright colour, robust fruit flavours, and limited tannin. Many local variations on the basic technique are practised around the world. A good example is the Beaujolais region of France. Often used with Gamay grapes.
