Ensuring good wine filterability is key to saving time, protecting quality, and avoiding costly production issues. Poor clarification and high polysaccharide levels can quickly lead to fouled membranes and slow filtration.

We are excited to introduce our innovative solutions to help you streamline clarification, reduce microbial load, and improve the overall quality of your wines.

Improve Filterability with Oenoflow Max

Œnoflow Max is formulated with specific enzymatic activities (pectinase, AG-II-hydrolase, hemicellulase, and β-glucanase) to break down a wider variety of complex polysaccharides compared to other enzymes on the market.

This advanced formulation ensures a more effective and cleaner filtration process, saving time and preserving the purity of your wine.

Better filtration, better balance, less time with VinoTaste Pro

VinoTaste Pro is a purified enzymatic blend of pectinase and β-glucanase that improves clarification while enhancing wine quality.

  • Improves natural filterability (up to +200%)

  • Enhances roundnessmouthfeel, and aromatic expression

  • Stabilizes color during maturation

  • Shortens aging time without compromising quality

Enhance Balance, Clarity & Stability with Greenfine Must

Fining is a key step in fine-tuning wines and ensuring smooth filtration. Greenfine Must is a 100% pea protein fining agent that delivers fast, effective clarification.

  • Vegan & allergen-free alternative to casein and PVPP

  • Removes excess phenolics to balance mouthfeel and enhance aromas

  • Controls oxidation by eliminating oxidized compounds and off-flavors

  • Reduces turbidity with rapid, compact sedimentation for brighter wines

Wrapping Up the 2025 Vintage: Building Balance and Longevity

Event Type: Webinar

Location: Online

Date: 11/20/2025

As harvest dust settles, it Is time to fine-tune your wines and prepare them for the next stage, ageing. Join us for a focused, 30-minute Lamothe-Abiet webinar designed to help you finalize your 2025 vintage with balance, clarity, and protection in mind. 

This practical and interactive session will guide you through key technical steps to optimize wine balance, structure, and stability, setting the foundation for high quality and longevity in the cellar. 

We’ll discuss: 

  • How fining agents can harmonize green or harsh tannins and rebalance phenolics 
  • Using tannins and barrel alternatives to rebuild structure and stabilize color 
  • Managing botrytis impact and glucans early with specific enzymes to enhance filtration and accelerate ageing 
  • Protecting your wines before ageing with natural antioxidant and antimicrobial solutions such as glutathione and chitosan 

Reserve your spot now and receive practical protocols to finish the 2025 vintage with confidence.

Every harvest comes with its own set of challenges. This year, uneven ripening, sunburn from summer heat, and the added pressure of rain and disease have made winemaking especially complex in certain regions.

To support you in the cellar, we’ve gathered our most useful protocols in one place. These guidelines are designed to provide quick, practical solutions when you need them most, helping you adapt on the fly and protect wine quality.

A smooth, complete fermentation doesn’t happen by chance, it starts with balanced yeast nutrition. When yeast has access to the right nutrients at the right time, you avoid sluggish or stuck fermentations, reduce the risk of Hâ‚‚S and VA, and unlock the full aromatic potential of your grapes. 

Why Yeast Nutrition Matters?

  • Nitrogen is the main driver of yeast growth and fermentation activity. Saccharomyces can assimilate only ammonium ions (DAP), amino acids (organic nitrogen), and small peptides (organic nitrogen).
  • Amino acids are strategic: they are taken up early, stored, and used gradually. Some of them also act as aroma precursors (thiols, esters, acetates).
  • Vitamins & minerals (thiamine, Mg, Zn) act as cofactors in enzymatic reactions and have a role in cell growth, fermentation activity, and nitrogen metabolism.
  • Sterols & long-chain fatty acids are essential for membrane structure, stress resistance, and survival.

Keys to Successful Fermentation:

1. Start Strong: Boost Yeast Health from Day One with Oenostim 

OENOSTIM® provides sterols, ergosterols, vitamins, and minerals that strengthen yeast membranes, improve alcohol tolerance, and support complete, efficient fermentation. By promoting a shorter lag phase and healthy yeast activity, it reduces contamination risks and ensures a smooth fermentation from day one.

2. Fuel Fermentation: The Power of Organic Nitrogen 

OPTIFLORE® O is a 100% organic nutrient (organic nitrogen is 2–4 times more effective than DAP). Derived from inactivated yeasts, it is rich in easily assimilable amino acids, vitamins, minerals, and micronutrients favoring cell multiplication. OPTIFLORE O supports regular and complete alcoholic fermentation, helps limit heat spikes, and is utilized by yeasts as needed. The use of OPTIFLORE O results in wines with enhanced aromatic profiles and reduced levels of undesirable compounds such as volatile acidity (VA) and hydrogen sulfide (Hâ‚‚S). 

3. Overcome Low YAN: OPTIFERM for Extreme Deficiencies 

In severe nitrogen deficiencies, pure organic nitrogen may not suffice to elevate YAN to adequate levels for proper fermentation. OPTIFERM® is recommended in such cases, as it is a complex nutrient comprising inactivated yeast, amino acids, sterols, long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, and inorganic ammonium salts (DAP). 

4. Rescue & Protect: Late-Stage Nutrition and Detox 

ACTIBIOL® supports yeast health in sluggish or stuck fermentations by providing growth (vitamins, amino acids, peptides) and survival factors (sterols, fatty acids). Its yeast hulls bind inhibitory compounds, detoxifying the must and ensuring fermentation completion. Ideal for restarting or rescuing challenging ferments. 

Special Tips for Challenging Fermentations:

  • Low YAN (<100 mg/L): Use a mix of organic + inorganic nitrogen (OptiFerm); pure organic may be insufficient.
  • High YAN (>250 mg/L): Monitor excessive biomass; add Optiflore O at â…“ fermentation to support yeast.
  • Damaged fruit (Botrytis, mildew…): Early supplementation with higher doses of OenoStim and Optiflore O compensates for amino acid and vitamin deficiencies.
  • Clarified juice (low turbidity): Add sterols and fatty acids via OenoStim to replace losses.
  • Sluggish fermentation: Detoxify with Actibiol before restarting.
  • Boost aromas: Use specialty nutrients like OPTITHIOLS (thiol precursors + antioxidant protection) or OPTIESTERS (ester precursors for fruity/floral notes).
