IN ENGLISH ON THE BOOK :: Wine (Latin vinum ) is a beverage produced from grapes ( Vitis vinifera ) by alcoholic fermentation of the must or zumo.2 Fermentation is produced by the metabolic action of yeasts that transform sugars in the fruit and ethyl alcohol gas as carbon dioxide. Sugar and fruit acids having Vitis vinifera makes sufficient for the development of fermentation . However , wine is a sum of a set of environmental factors: climate, latitude, altitude, hours of light , temperature ... etc.3 Approximately 66% of the global harvest of grapes is dedicated to wine production ; the rest is for consumption as fruta.4 However the cultivation of the vine covers only 0.5 % of arable land in the world.5 The cultivation of the vine is associated to places with a Mediterranean climate. The name of "wine" only the alcoholic liquid from the total or partial fermentation of grape juice without addition of any substance is given . Many laws are considered only as wine fermented drink made from Vitis vinifera , although other species such drinks as Vitis labrusca , Vitis rupestris , etc. are obtained Knowledge of the particular science of winemaking is called oenology (without considering the processes of growing grapes ) . The science which treats only the biology of the vine and its cultivation is called . ampelología .
