Type: Pure soluble yeast mannoproteins.
Characteristics:
- Pinnacle Absolute MP is a pure yeast mannoprotein extracted from yeast cell walls and is completely soluble.
- Pinnacle Absolute MP has a clear smoothing effect by reducing astringency of aggressive grape and wood tannins.
Application:
- Pinnacle Absolute MP is a solution to improve mouthfeel and complexity of white and red wines aged in oak or stainless steel.
- Pinnacle Absolute MP contributes to protein and tartaric stabilisation of the wine.
- Pinnacle Absolute MP has an immediate and obvious sensorial effect, improving mouthfeel and flavor of the wine.
- Requires 12 to 48 hours (depending on temperature) to be 100% dissolved into wine, ready for bottling.
One of the largest trends in the global wine industry is the preference for Low and No Alcohol wines. While these wines meet the requirements for lower alcohol concentrations, the production process to make these wines often strips flavor and aroma compounds. This makes the resultant wine lacking in aroma and mouthfeel, with the latter making the wines taste thin with no viscosity or texture. AB Biotek has generated a solution to this problem with Pinnacle Absolute MP, a specific fraction of inactive yeast that contains a very high level of mannoproteins.
These mannoproteins when added to wine after dealcoholisation improve the mouthfeel and texture of wine. Importantly, Pinnacle Absolute MP is added at low dosage rates and easily dispersible and thus does not result in particulate matter sitting in the bottom of the wine. AB Biotek recommends Pinnacle Absolute MP for adding to No and Low alcohol wines when there is a desire to improve mouthfeel of the wine.
