The method, reverse osmosis, has gained some notoriety as being the ultimate in manipulation; unlike cryo-extraction and low pressure evaporation, there is no natural analogy.
Extract
The extract refers to the solid compounds in wine, such as sugars and tannins. A winemaker can increase the extract by extending the time during which the juice is in contact with the grape skins.
Extract
The extract is often referring to all the solid components in wine. Extract is generally increased by leaving the growing young wine in contact with the skins and pips during the cuvaison (vatting).
Extract
This refers to the solid compounds in wine, such as tannins but not water, sugar, alcohol, and acidity. Increasing the extract results in more colour and body.
Extract: Essentially, the minerals and other trace elements in a wine. Sugar-free dry extract is everything in a wine except water, sugar, acids and alcohol.
Extract - The solid compounds in wine, such as tannins. Increasing the level of extract results in more colour and body. However, some wines can be considered over-extracted.

Extracted. It's hard to avoid this word in any discussion of wines these days. Essentially it means just what it sounds like: a wine that's concentrated and intense.
Extract: Richness and depth of concentration of fruit in a wine. Usually a positive quality, although high extract wine can also be highly tannic.

Extraction is the process of taking the flavor, color and tannin out of the grape skins during maceration when the grape skins are steeped in the grape juice during fermentation.

Extract: Refers collectively to the non-evaporating substances present in a wine such as tannins, sugars, polysaccharides and alcohols which give it its richness and body.
Extract
Technically, this refers to the amount of dissolved solid material in a wine, and it's usually a term reserved for red wines.

Refers to the coloring imparted to wines during the fermentation process by the skins of the grapes used. Can also occur in the further step known as "maceration" where new wine is allowed to steep with the skins again.
Malt extract
The condensed wort from a mash, consisting of maltose, dextrins, and other dissolved solids in the form of powdered suger or syrup. It can be reconstituted with water for fermentation.

Extraction of flavours and colours is not a problem in white musts; the crushed grape mass is usually separated from the skins before fermentation.
Extract:Richness, depth and concentration of fruit flavors in a wine. Usually a positive quality, extract adds to wine's body, yet highly extracted wine can also be very tannic.
MALT EXTRACT: A concentrated syrup ('wet') or powder ('dry') made from malted barley. Widely used in beer kits, and by home brewers to save them having to mash the malt.

Grape seed oil is extracted from grape seeds and has a relatively high smoke point, approximately 420 °F (216 °C), so it can be safely used to cook at high temperatures. Grape seed oil can be used for stir-fries, sautéing and fondue.

Pressing the grapes extracts juice as well as additional color and tannins. Too much pressure will also begin leaching bitter tannins from the seeds, so care must be taken.

Corked: The wine smells of cork, it is unpleasant to smell and taste, slightly musty.
tannic The tannins of a wine, which are extracted from the grape skins and stems, are, along with a wine's acidity and alcohol, its lifeline. Tannins give a wine firmness and some roughness when young, but gradually fall away and dissipate.
Maceration The contact of grape skins with the must during fermentation, extracting phenolic compounds including tannins, anthocyanins, and aroma. Madeirized A wine showing Madeira-like flavour, generally evidence of oxidation.
(the regular bottlings run around $25, while the Reserve bottlings run around $125; some think this wine has been on the decline in recent years/vintages--Robert Parker, for one, thinks the Mondavi wines lack the hedonistic, fully extracted ...
This operation allow the extraction of huge quantities of color from the skins, avoids the breaking of pips and the skins can macerate in the juice in order to extract their aromatic substances.
In addition, the vines must be allowed to yield close to their maximum production (often 10-12 tons of fruit per acre, sometimes even more), the maximum juice from eacg grape must be extracted (i.e.

These cool temperatures would delay fermentation for several days, extending the maceration period and extraction of phenolic compounds such as tannins.
