- Application
• Pinnacle Natura Tan can be added at any time. When used during aging, after malolactic and/or pre-bottling, it reinforces white, rosé and red wines with pleasant, sweet and persistent tannic notes.
• By increasing ellagic tannins concentration in wine, Pinnacle Natura Tan maximizes wood contact effect, thus optimizing aging conditions in new or used barrels.
- Instructions for use
Granulated form provides total solubility so direct addition in must is possible. However, to better homogenize and optimize action of Pinnacle Natura Tan we recommend dissolving in wine (1:10 ratio) or in warm water before adding to the wine. Note: when added in white wines at pre-bottling, a preliminary protein stability test is required to avoid any risk of flocculation with proteins.
- Dosage
Suggested dosage 1-5 g/hL. Higher dose is required for wines subject to oxidation or with low structure. Note: higher doses of Pinnacle Natura Tan (6-10 g/hL) require time to fully integrate into wine and harmonize its structure. We recommend adding Pinnacle Natura Tan one week (or up to one month) before bottling.
