(Updated this post because my original arithmetic was wrong.)
The bath is approx 1.2m x .75m and the red grapes filled it to about .15m deep, maybe a little more. That's a volume of .135 cubic metres. That volume of liquid theoretically should result in 135 litres, or practically a bit less when the pulp is removed. And indeed the actual result was indeed something like 130 litres of juice!
The white grapes filled the bath to about .6m deep. That's a volume of .54 cubic metres, which is 540 litres. And the actual result was estimated around 500 litres.
The final quantity of wine will be a big less because the sediment will be removed in coming months by 'racking'.
