1 Simple Step to Reduce Topping Losses

All wine makers know that during periods of low humidity barrels dry out, causing higher levels of wine evaporation and the need to top off barrels. However, what you might not know is with proper humidification, this can be drastically reduced.

Once the winery made the decision to install a fog humidification system McClain and his team discovered they had to do less topping which equates to preserving the premium wine they produce.
