Features and Benefits
- Formulation: Powdered preparation made of 100% vegetal protein extracted from pea (Pisium Sativum).
- Enological benefits:
- GreenFine® Must is a clarifying agent that gives rapid and compact sedimentation of must solids.
- It helps to decrease oxidation by removing phenolic compounds and yellow shades from musts.
- GreenFine® Must is a versatile alternative to casein and PVPP.
- It decreases bitterness, green notes, and certain mushroom-type faults, thus preventing organoleptic spoilages.
