Description
OENO-Soften, a specific yeast derivative, is rich in mannoproteins and low-molecular-mass peptides, which improves mouthfeel, balances acidity and bitterness of wine and influences the organoleptic characteristics. OENO-Soften is produced by a special autolysis and enzymolysis process of yeast. Mannoproteins, amino acids, and peptides can affect wine body, soften the aggressive tannins, stabilize foam in sparkling wines, as well as increase tartaric and colloidal stability.
Applications
1. Suitable for red wines, sparkling, highly recommended for strong body wine.
2. Contributes to stabilization of tartrates and colloids in wine.
3. Improves mouthfeel and roundness of wines. Soften the astringency of rough tannins.
4. Balance the acidity and bitterness of wine.
