here is an OnLine Winemaking Manual that might make good reading on a hot summer's night...and save for future reference.

I was reading and found this...
On average, a ton of California wine grapes contains seven pounds of dirt,
one mouse nest, 247 bees, 198 wasps, 1,014 earwigs, 1,833 ants, 10,899 leaf
hoppers and four pounds of bird droppings, more or less. Besides the above
materials, the waxy coating on grapes contains a variety of microorganisms.
Freshly crushed, grapes contain several non grape substances and many
microorganisms..
What's in your wine???
I've been washing my fruit!!!
