Best Answer

Malolactic fermentation is important in the process of wine making because it softens the harder, tart like lactic acid found in fermenting Grape Juice. Lactic acid is a fruit acid found in grapes. When this acid is fermented into this softer form (malolactic) wines are easier and more enjoyable to drink.

Because unlike the missing "is" in your "Why is.." question, it is necessary for it to make sense. No fermentation = no ethanol. What is ethanol? The chemical name for alcohol. Can you imagine a drink with no tipsyness? You're probably underage then, wait till you're 18 or 21 if you live in an oppressive unfree country.
