Tannin Elegance -By Enartis for white wines and cider

EnartisTan Elegance is a mixture of condensed tannins largely extracted from white grape skins. It possesses an intense antioxidant activity guaranteed to maintain long-term young color hue and aromatic freshness. It enhances fruit and floral notes and increases structure and softness. It can also be used in red wines to enhance fruitiness without imparting astringency.

Composition: Condensed tannin extracted from exotic species wood, grape skin tannin and gallic tannin

Applications

• Red and rosé must
• During white, red and rosé wine maturation

Dosage:

• White and rosé musts: 10 - 15 g/hL (0.8-1.3 lb/1,000 gal)
• Wine: 3 - 10 g/hL (0.25-0.8 lb/1,000 gal)

Instructions to use:

Dissolve EnartisTan Elegance at a 1:10 ratio in water or wine while mixing continuously. Add to wine during a pump-over with a dosage pump or Venturi tube.
When used in wine, performing laboratory trials is advised to evaluate the sensory impact and to determine the best dosage.

While it is recommended to add EnartisTan Elegance during the early stages of wine maturation, it can be added as late as 1-2 weeks prior to bottling. When added close to bottling, it is important to evaluate the effect on filterability and protein and colloidal stability by completing preliminary laboratory trials.
