Oenogum™ R is a purified Seyal Acacia Gum, specially designed to provide roundness to filtered red wines . Oenogum™ R is particularly suitable to fine filtrations (up to 0,65 µm) because it filters easily and improves productivity by avoiding any sealing problems.

Recommended dosage: 10 to 30g/hl. (Please consult your oenologist) according to the objective. A preliminary laboratory test is recommended in order to evaluate the best-suited dose.

In the case of a filtration at 0,65 µm or more: OENOGUM™ R can be used after fining, when the wine has settled, 72 hours before the last filtration treatment, in order to get an homogenous repartition.

Thanks to its high microbiological quality, OENOGUM™ R may also be added at the time of bottling, when the last filtrations have been carried out. In this case, OENOGUM S is previously diluted at 20% in the wine or water

OENOGUM® R contains acacia arabinogalactans, that efficiently realize the complexation of tannins from red wine, and leads to an astringency decrease, wine softening and an improved roundness feeling.
