MAXIGUM PLUS is a liquid stabilizing agent made of Gum Arabic obtained from Acacia Verek and mannoproteins. The gum Arabic undergoes a special filtration treatment that makes it microfilterable while preserving its natural high molecular weight and therefore its stabilizing efficacy. Mannoproteins reinforce gum stabilization effect and due to their interaction with aromatic and polyphenolic compounds, soften astringency, reduce dryness and improve aroma complexity.
Citrogum is a clear, almost colorless Gum Arabic preparation with a low calcium content. Citrogum is recommended for the treatment of wines ready for bottling. It integrates the colloidal content of wine, improving its balance, organoleptic features and stability, mainly tartaric. It enhances aroma, reduces bitterness and astringency, and increases softness and body. Citrogum’s low membrane blocking capacity (it’s the most filterable gum in the market!), purity and microbial stability ensure that it can be added with confidence at any stage during preparation for bottling. The sulfur dioxide in the preparation gives the product a long shelf life and enables direct addition to wine even after microfiltration without any risk of microbial contamination.
