Vegetable plankton use sunlight and carbonic acid dissolved in the sea to produce carbohydrates.
That meant rejecting the common thermovinification technique (which he says homogenizes wines) in favor of a cold carbonic maceration that preserves freshness without added sulfites.
At low temperatures under pressure, liquid carbonic forms what is known as dry ice.
