Video clip from Enoforum Web Conference - Presentations by Ana Hranilovic and Antonio Castro Marin
Two research presentations, one from Australia and one from Italy, propose interesting and sustainable oenological solutions to combat the lack of acidity in wines and microbial threats.

The reduction of sulphur dioxide in the early stages of wine-making certainly is a sustainable practice for both organic and conventional producers but its practicality is dependant on the particular care in the management of the fermentations.
With regards to red wines, some simple practices, such as yeasts - lactic bacteria co-inoculation can be helpful tools in managing MLF even when reduced SO2 amounts are used.....
