АDIG – Cabernet sauvignon/Merlot vinification protocol / fruit profile

ADIG presents a Cabernet Sauvignon / Merlot vinification scheme. The protocol was developed with the purpose of fully extracting variety’s and region’s characteristics. It is suitable for grapes of average and good ripeness, without any wood contact.


Please insert grape quantity :

                

SO2: Bactol Р - 10 g/hL

Enzyme: DEPECTIL EXTRA GARDE - 3 g/hL
(3- 4 h after filling the container)

Accepting the grapes

Sorting

Shelling without squashing

Filling the container

It is advisable to make double sorting in order to remove grains in poor condition and residues from the vine. Do the shelling at a minimum speed.

Bactol Р: potassium metabisulphite

Depectil Extraction: pectolytic enzyme for the extraction of cellular content from the grape

Tannins: VYTANIL VR - 10 g/hl

Yeast: YEAST С.O. FRUITY/ VITILEVURE PRIMIER/VITILEVURE LB ROUGE - 20 g/hL

Activator: ACTIFERM 1 - 10g/ hL
(Add in the end of the pre-fermentation maceration)

Activator: ACTIFERM 2 - 10 g/hL
(3-5 days after the AF)

Tannin SUBLITAN VINIF - 10 g/hL
(add during delestage at density 1.050)

Maceration and fermentation

Affusion /immersion/ delestage:
Temperature =22-24°С

Do maceration with the skins in the course of 3-4 days at 10-12° С with 3 immersions a day, protect from oxidation with dry ice. Do 2 delestages: 1 at 1070 and 1 at about 1050. Avoid movement in the alcohol phase. Do not do more than two affusions/immersions a day.

Vytanil VR: quebracho condensed tannin.

Yeast С.O. Fruity / Primier /LB rouge: yeast for red fruity wines.

Actiferm 1-2: complex activator for yeast

Sublitan vinif: combination of tannins based on grape tannin

Output - 60%      

Clarifier for press wine: PRZ Ultra - 20 g/hL

LAB: Vitilactic F - 1g/hl

Bacteria activator: Malovit - 20 g/hl

Separating press wine from musts wine

Malolactic fermentation

It is advisable to store musts wine and press wine separately and to determine when and in what proportion to blend them.

Vitilactic F: lactic acid bacteria

Malovit: food for lactic acid bacteria

SO2: Bactol Р - 10 g/hl

Tannins: TANIREZEN - 1- 2 g/hL
(after testing)

-

Decantation

Storage

Do slight aeration.
Sulphitize after 48 hours.

Tanirezen: pure tannin from grape skins

Crystalline / Ovocol / Aquacol / Calizol

Clarification

Control of free SO2

Clarifier‘s dosage and type to be determined after degustation and laboratory testing.

Any additional processing of the wine to be determined after visiting and testing.

For more information, please contact us.

Decantation

Filtering

Bottling

Wine should be stored in tanks full to the brim.

Monthly SO2 control.

Resulphating till the desired level of free SO2 is reached: 3 weeks before bottling.
