While a wine with substantial sediment requires special handling (the bottle is generally stood upright and then decanted off its sediment), sediment is generally a sign that the wine was not excessively filtered prior to bottling.
But it is a controversial practice. Opponents to filtration claim that it strips out some of the flavour, and marketing people consequently use the term 'unfiltered' to help sell wines that haven't been treated in this way.
Rapid precipitation is induced by lowering the temperature to -7 to -5 C (19 to 23 F) for one or two weeks. If the resulting wine is filtered off the tartrate deposit, tartrate precipitation will not usually cause clouding later.
identified and cared for, for one reason or another; in short, it means the vines are of high quality, in a fantastic location, and old). After fermentation, the wine spent 18 months in French oak barrels (66% of them new) and was bottled unfiltered.
