Product Description

ABOUT ANTIBRETT
IDEAL USE: SMOKE TAINT REMOVAL, BRETTANOMYCES TAINT REMOVAL, PREVEVENTION OF BRETTANOMYCES CHARACTER IN CONTAMINATED BARRELS
  • Smoke taint and Brettanomyces taint are two defects that are very hard to fine without using special equipment.
  • The major indicator compounds associated with both these types of taint belong to the group called volatile phenols. In the case of Brettanomyces, the responsible compounds are 4-ethylphenol and 4- ethylguaiacol; and in the case of smoke taint, guaiacol and 4-methylguaiacol.
  • These molecules are fairly similar.AEB has found a natural fining agent that can diminish (and in certain cases eliminate) the problems caused by these compounds.
  • Antibrett may be used as a preventive tool in contaminated barrels.It guarantees the inhibition of vinyl-reductase which is responsible for the transformation of naturally occurring cinnamic acids into the corresponding ethyl derivatives.
  • Although it can be used to cure wines that already show taint problems, results may vary.
  • Bench trials are always recommended before treating a full batch.
