PROTOCOLS, ADDITIVES AND ANALYSES
From the protocol to real execution
Organize your winemaking stages, connect additions and analyses to real operations, and follow the progress of every production.
Where winemaking documentation usually breaks
Most wineries already know how they work. The protocol lives in a Word file, the additions in a notebook, the analyses in a lab email and the stock in a spreadsheet. Nothing is wrong on its own — but nothing is connected either.
- A step is skipped because nobody sees the whole sequence
- An addition is executed but never written down
- An analysis exists, yet no one knows which vessel it belongs to
- Additive stock and expiry dates are only checked when something runs out
- Two vintages of the same wine are impossible to compare properly
- Phases and steps
- Required progress

Winemaking protocol templates
A protocol is your own winemaking method, written once and reused. You keep separate templates per wine style and adapt them as your practice evolves.
- White winemaking
- Rosé winemaking
- Red winemaking
- Custom templates for your own wines
- Phases that group the work of a stage
- Steps inside each phase
- Required and optional steps
- Instructions and notes per step
- Reordering and editing at any time
Apply a protocol to a winemaking batch
When you apply a template to a batch, the batch receives its own independent copy. Reality can differ from the plan without rewriting your method.
- Batch-specific copy, independent from the template
- Progress tracking on the batch
- Required progress and total progress
- Completed, in progress, pending and skipped steps
- Protocol adaptation without changing the source template
- The template stays clean for the next batch
Connect the protocol to real execution
A step is not just a checkbox. It points to the actual record that proves the work was done, so the protocol reflects what happened in the cellar.
- Operations
- Additions
- Analyses
- Pre-press operations
- Press batches
- Fermentation logs
- Tasting notes where supported
- Live status synchronization with the linked record
- Linking an existing record instead of creating a duplicate
AI protocol import
If your method already exists as a document, you do not have to retype it. WineOS reads it and proposes a structured draft that you review before anything is saved.
- Plain text
- DOCX
- Structured draft with phases and steps
- Review and correction before confirmation
- Matching against commercial products and analysis parameters
Extraction produces a draft only. No production record is written automatically, and nothing is executed in your cellar without your confirmation.
Commercial oenological product library
The additive catalogue arrives pre-installed with commercial products from the suppliers wineries actually use, so you select instead of typing.
- Pre-installed product catalogue
- LAFFORT
- Enartis
- Dal Cin
- IOC
- Lallemand
- Other suppliers
- Commercial name, manufacturer and category
- Components and declarable information where available
- Commercial name
- Manufacturer
Winery additive stock
Your own stock is built on top of the catalogue: what you bought, from whom, at what price, in which product LOT and until when it is usable.
- Select the product from the library
- Quantity
- Packaging
- Purchase price
- Supplier
- Product LOT
- Expiry date
- Available stock
- Stock thresholds
Addition execution
An addition is recorded where it happens — on a batch, a LOT or a vessel — and it can contain everything that went in together.
- Additions linked to a batch, a LOT or a vessel
- Several products in one addition sheet
- Dose and quantity
- Planned versus executed additions
- Stock deduction on execution
- Cost contribution to the batch
Analyses and laboratory records
Analyses are stored against the thing they measure, with the parameters you actually follow, so the history stays readable months later.
- Analysis templates
- Analyses linked to batch, LOT and vessel
- Baumé
- Density
- pH
- Total acidity
- Free and total SO₂
- Alcohol
- Sugars
- Temperature
- Other configurable parameters
Temperature and production monitoring
Day-to-day monitoring lives next to the protocol, building a chronological technical history of each wine.
- Vessel temperature records
- Fermentation logs
- Tasting notes
- Chronological technical history
What the winery gains
- Repeatable winemaking processes
- Fewer missed steps
- Stronger production documentation
- Faster additive entry
- Better stock and expiry control
- Analyses connected to actual production
- Clearer protocol progress
