Capitalization of wine
Most straight up kits are and can be boosted to a higher abv,but you first have to know the rulles and how to balance out a perticular wine in oreder to make it your own and that comes with understanding the process ,simple syurp for example:
Chaptalization is the process of adding sugar to unfermented grape must in order to increase the alcohol content after fermentation. The technique is named after its developer, the French chemist Jean-Antoine-Claude Chaptal. This process is not intended to make the wine sweeter, but rather to provide more sugar for the yeast to ferment into alcohol.capitalization has generated controversy and discontent in the French wine industry due to advantages that the process is perceived to give producers in poor-climate areas. In response to violent demonstrations by protesters in 1907, the French government began regulating the amount of sugar that can be added to wine.
capitalization is sometimes referred to as enrichment, for example in the European Union wine regulations specifying the legality of the practice within EU.The legality of capitalization varies by country, region, and even wine type. In general, it is legal in regions that produce grapes with low sugar content. capitalization is prohibited in Argentina, Australia, Austria, California, Italy, and South Africa. Germany prohibits the practice for making Prädikatswein. It is generally permitted in regions where grapes tend to have low sugar content, including regions in France, Germany, and the United States.
