pumping over

This glossary includes English translation:
http://www.ivp.pt/pagina.asp?codPag=14

Remontagem - operação que consiste em tirar o mosto em fermentação pela parte inferior da cuba para o lançar na parte superior da mesma vasilha, tendo em vista o seu arejamento e favorecer a extracção de compostos responsáveis pela cor bem como promover a homogeneização do mosto em fermentação.

The corresponding English page:

Pumping over - the procedure that consists of pumping the fermenting must from the bottom of the tank and pouring it in at the top of the same tank so as to air the must and encourage the extraction of the compounds responsible for giving it its colour and to make it more homogeneous.

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Thanks very much Edgar, much appreciated. I thought the text was describing the automatic mixing of the grapes, now I understand that it is the 'pumping' within the machine. Thanks also for the very useful link. Cheers."
