Yeast Derivative Nutrient - For increased color stability, integrated mouthfeel and roundness in red wines; OMRI listed

OPTI-MUM RED™ helps to produce wines with intense color, a rounder, softer mouthfeel, and a decreasedperception of astringency.

• Early additions of OPTI-MUM RED lead to more stable color due to reactions between early-released color molecules (anthocyanins), phenolic compounds (tannins), and polysaccharides (OPTI-MUM RED)
• Reduces the perception of green, astringent tannins in cool-climate or low maturity fruit
• Reduces the sensation of hotness in high alcohol wines
• The mannoprotein portion of this autolyzed yeast helps soften mouthfeel
• The yeast strain behind OPTI-MUM RED was specifically selected and fully autolyzed for its highly reactive high molecular weight polysaccharides and oligosaccharides
