Prevent post-bottling wine defects
Maxigum is a liquid solution of Gum Arabic obtained from Acacia Verek. Because of its high molecular weight and highly branched structure, it is extremely effective in preventing the precipitation of color substances in wines ready for bottling.
Made from Acacia verek, Maxigum is produced using a simple solubilization and purification process designed to maintain the gum’s original dimensions and structure. As a result, Maxigum is highly effective in preventing pigment complex precipitation, softening astringency, and increasing mouthfeel structure.

How to Avoid and Treat Reductive Wines
During the winemaking process, wines can accumulate volatile sulfur compounds (VSCS). Typically referred to as “reduction”, volatile sulfur compounds are a class of sulfur based compounds which can lead to serious wine defects if not handled properly. The accumulation of these compounds occurs early in the winemaking process and continues to develop as the wine ages.
