It was sold as a grape concentrate to make grape juice from but it apophatically included a warning with instructions on how to make wine from it. [1]
The natural occurrence of fermentation means it was probably first observed long ago by humans. [3] The earliest uses of the word "fermentation" in relation to winemaking was in reference to the apparent "boiling" within the must that came from the anaerobic reaction of the yeast to the sugars in the grape juice and the release of carbon dioxide.
Muscat grapes drying in the sun Grapes sun-wilting on the plant Grapes laid out to dry. Straw wine, or raisin wine, is a wine made from grapes that have been dried off the vine to concentrate their juice. Under the classic method, after a careful hand harvest, selected bunches of ripe grapes will be laid out on mats in full sun.
After the harvest, the grapes are taken into a winery and prepared for primary ferment; at this stage red wine making diverges from white wine making. Red wine is made from the must (pulp, including the juice) of red or black grapes and fermentation occurs together with the grape skins, which impart color, flavor and tannins to the wine through ...
Medieval grape harvesting.

In many wine regions, brown sugar is an illegal additive, and in regions that disallow chaptalization altogether, grape concentrate may be added. [3] After sugar is added to the must, naturally occurring enzymes break down the sucrose molecules in sugar into glucose and fructose , which are then fermented by the yeast and converted into alcohol ...
