The increased content of polysaccharides and mannoproteins improves the organoleptic perception of the wine, favoring the sensations of body and volume in the mouth. They interact with phenolic compounds in red wines, thus reducing astringency and bitterness of tannins. They also stabilize the aromatic fraction and delay its perception, prolonging the aftertaste. In addition, polysaccharides and mannoproteins contribute to tartaric stability, by blocking crystallization reactions, and to protein and coloring matter stability by interaction with proteins and tannins, respectively.

They can be used:

In alcoholic fermentation, to improve the structure and stability of aromas and coloring matter, from the transformation of must into wine; MannoAROME and MannoCrom are recommended for red vinification and MannoBlanc for white vinification.

In finished wine, when aged on exogenous lees: SuperBouquet and SuperBouquet MN contribute to the sensory characteristics of the wine by polishing aggressive tannins and increasing the sensations of body and mouthfeel, and MannoCUP is recommended for the elimination of undesirable sulfur compounds without devaluing the aromatic heritage of the wine.

Before bottling: MannoPLUS, pure soluble mannoprotein, is added to the finished wine before the final filtration.
