Tanéthyl
AEB USA
Color stabilization and polymerization of polyphenolic structure in red and white wines.
Ideal use: Tannin and color polymerization
Tanéthyl is extracted from grape pips by means of a patented system, which locks an active ethanol bridge to the tannin. Ethanol bridges have been shown to be greatly responsible for color stabilization and tannin polymerization. Tanethyl is a great tool for achieving the big, soft structure provided by micro oxygenation without using oxygen. It can be used both in red and whites to increase volume and to balance a rough polyphenolic profile.
Utilization: Mix in a separate tub with warm water (35 °C/95 °F) and then add to the grapes or to fermenting must during pump over. After addition, wait at least one week before filtering the wine.
