This is the time of year when vineyards are working hard to harvest grapes and begin to produce wine for customers. A number of gasses are used in the process. One of the most common is carbon dioxide (CO2). CO2 is used in controlling the temperature of the grapes during harvest, transport, and fermentation. CO2 also applies to other aspects of wine production such as the wine aging process, when wine is blanketed before it is bottled, and even when wine bottles are being purged due to oxygen exposure. CO2, argon, and nitrogen are used throughout the wine making process. Gas pressure is used for liquid transfer. Gas blanketing is used to protect the product from oxidation. And, more.
