FRENCH WINE ADULTERATIoN.
Red Into white Wines, to Meet
q Popular Fad.

An old caricature of CHAINS depicted
the horror of a French gentleman who
had made inquiries Of his wine mer.
chant as TO the prospects of the vim
tage, and had received the reply that
the outlook was good, for the price Of
potato spirit had fallen and the supply
OF fuchsine was ample. During the
bad years after the phylloxera, the
public mind became firmly imbued
with the belief that the red wines of
France were particularly liable TO be
adulterated. The notion that white
wines were less likely to be sophisti-
Gated gave rise to a fashion which has
continued after the belief on which il
was founded has ceased to have any
good ground.
We do not propose TO attribute 10
French wine-makers any exceptional
increase Of conscientiousness, but the
fact appears to be that recent vim
tages have been so copious that it is
not worth while to adulterate. Never.
theless, the public belief In a greater
purity Of French white wines per.
sists, and as one Consequence, they
have become dearer than red wines
of corresponding quality. Supply
follows demand. and producers of red
wine have set about to find means TO
convert II into white. Recent analyses
made In France prove that one mode
OF obtaining this end is TO treat red
wine with a mixture Of animal char.
coal and potassium permanganate.
This process bleaches the wine, but at
the same time leaves q considerable
quantity OF manganese In solution.
Wine which has thus been treated can
be recognized by addingto itinan open
vessel an exces OF caustic soda and
shaking. After a few minutes q thin
brown layer forms on the surface of
the liquid, due 10 the oxidation by the
air OF the oxide Of manganese set at
liberty by the alkali. There can be no
doubt that this manipulation, which
transforms red wine into white, rem.
ders II less wholesome; and II "a curl.
Gus to reflect that this has been
brought about by the desire of the pub
lie to escape from adulteration. Seek.
Ing to avoid fuchsine, they are now
dosed with manganese. Well may NJ.
