Crates of wine bottles

These wine bottles are undergoing a process to turn them into sparkling wine. This process takes metal and yeast, the yeast leaves a residue which has to be removed. Thus, all fo the bottles are set up and rotated so the residue moves to their neck. They then freeze the neck and open the bottle. The residue pops out, they add some sugar and reseal.
