Formulation: Specific preparation of yeast autolyses.
Enological benefits:
- Natur’Soft® contains autolysed yeast that can combine with anthocyanins, helping to stabilise the colour of red wines.
- These compounds also interact with tannins, giving roundness and volume on the palate while attenuating green notes.
- The dual effects of Natur’Soft® can significantly improve the organoleptic properties of red wines.
