Features and Benefits

Formulation: Pure grape tannin with low phenol content.

Enological benefits:

  • Vinitan Advance® is a pure grape tannin produced according to strict purity and quality guidelines. It is the ideal tannin for red wines with ageing potential.
  • Contributes to colour stability and protects against premature colour loss (tannin-anthocyanin stabilisation).
  • When used at the beginning of aging, it helps to protect against oxidation.
  • When used throughout the maturation or before bottling, Vinitan Advance® reinforces the wine’s structure and balance and improves its ageing potential.

Product Applications

Instantly soluble, Vinitan Advance® is ready to use. Dissolve in 10 times its weight in wine. Add into the tank during a pump-over or during a transfer in order to achieve perfect homogenisation. Il s’emploie pour les vins rouges de garde, en cours d’élevage ou peu avant la mise en bouteille.

Dosage:

  • During fermentation or post runn off: 5 to 30 g/hL
  • During ageing: 2 to 10 g/hL

The dosage of tannins depends on each type of wine and winemaking imperatives to be achieved. Take advice from your oenologist in order to comply with the oenological codex (OIV).

Lamothe-Abiet provides single-dose samples (for one bottle) to simplify the calculation of the treatment.
