Just for Fun

Lees are the residual yeast cells and other particles that settle at the bottom of a wine barrel or tank during the fermentation and aging process. Winemakers often choose to leave the wine in contact with the lees for a period of time, a process known as "lees aging" or "sur lie" aging.

When the lees are left in contact with the wine, they can impart certain desirable characteristics, such as creaminess, richness, and complexity. The lees can also help to stabilize the wine, by consuming any residual sugars and releasing natural preservatives.
