>>>>Scully says that must is grape juice that has been boiled down until
syrupy.  He uses undiluted frozen grape juice concentrate for his
redactions.  This might be a good thing to use for cooks not using
alcohol.  It was either Pliny or Cato that tossed the sealed bottles of
must into the fish pond to keep them from spoiling, which also argues
that must was not fermented.<<<<

To my knowledge, "must" is the unfiltered grape juice that you get
with crushed grapes with all the pulp and bits still in it but the skins
 and seeds strained out.  It is your basic beginning point of making
wine from sratch rather from concentrates.  As it has lots of natural
yeasts in it, it will begin to ferment unless kept cool, so putting it in
sealed bottles in the bottom of a pond makes sense.
