Élevage: French term for the progression of wine between fermentation and bottling. Comparable to the term "raising" in English; think of élevage as a wine's adolescence or education. The raw fermented juice is shaped during this period into something resembling its final form, through techniques such as barrel aging, filtering and fining. Good winemaking decisions during élevage can help the juice achieve its full potential; bad decisions can leave it flawed.

培养： 指葡萄酒从发酵到装瓶前这一期间的法语词汇。相当于英语中的“抚养”，意指葡萄酒的青春期或者培养期。原始的发酵汁在这个阶段通过酒桶熟化，过滤和澄清等技术，形成最终的葡萄酒。在培养期，好的酿酒决策能使发酵汁充分发挥潜力；坏的酿酒决策则使葡萄酒留有缺陷。
