As often the word is used figuratively to designate what is most vile in society. This is known as the dregs of society or the dregs of the people. The word is also used to denote the color of red wine bind (purplish red), but beware there are also the dregs of white wine (light brown).
Winemakers may decide to retain a portion of the lees. They then remove the solid residue of grapes, soil and retains only the dead yeast. These cells interact with other components of wine (for the pros we talk about yeast autolysis) to create complex flavors. This is called aging on lees. This is often coupled with a stirring and for the vinification of white wines. Provides links to the white wines immeasurable aromatic richness. I suggest you try the great white Pessac Léognan.
Ex: Castle Carbonnieux White Pessac Léognan.
