• Sediment deposit
  Deposit or sediment of red wines which have been aged in a bottle. These sediments are precipitated tannins and colour pigments. The sediments can be removed by decanting the wine. During decantation, the wine is transferred into a decanter (container) while held above a lit candle. Once the sediments move in the direction of the bottleneck, the decantation process is interrupted.
