- Condensed tannin extracted from unfermented white grape seeds with a high concentration of mono-catechins.
- Highly reactive, it specifically condenses free anthocyanins to promote a long-lasting color.
- One of our best tannins for color stabilization, particularly efficient during macro-oxygenation to condense with anthocyanins via acetaldehyde bridges.
- Increases wine structure, aromatic complexity and prevents premature oxidation.
Recommendations: Color stability; condensation; micro-oxygenation prior to malolactic fermentation; micro-oxygenation; increase wine structure; thermovinification; flash-détente.
