No Brett Inside®

Since the development of active dry yeasts for wine in the 70’s, to get the best of them, the best practice has been to rehydrate them in water at 37 °C for a short time, before inoculation of the juice or must to be fermented. However, there is a new trend for so-called “direct inoculation” […]

Wine bacteria have a more considerable impact on the wine sensory profile than previously thought. New findings have shown that the genetic diversity within the wine bacteria Oenococcus oeni and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum is very rich, and that it can have implications on how the wine bacteria perform, especially in terms of revelation of aroma compounds and wine […]

NoBrett Inside Brettanomyces bruxellensis constitutes a permanent threat to the quality of wines. These wine alteration yeasts can develop in difficult environments and at any time during the life of a wine, but particularly during the aging phase. Different means are currently used to fight against Brettanomyces, with varying degrees of success. However,…… NBI Chitosan […]

MALOLACTIC FERMENTATION Malolactic fermentation (MLF) is an integral step in red winemaking, which not only is wine de-acidification, as it will also influence the composition of volatile fermentation-derived compounds with concomitant effects on wine sensory properties and the wine color profile. Long-established winemaking protocols for MLF induction generally involve inoculation of bacteria starter cultures post-alcoholic […]
