Gum Arabic has been downplayed and relegated as a mere sweetener for so long when this ingredient can, in fact, bring much more to the table.

To start with, you need to know what is the product you're adding to your wine; the different gum arabic solutions can have completely different properties depending on:

• what is the botanical variety it was extracted from
• the percentage of the different varieties in the mix.
• how the exudate was dissolved and prepared

Acacia verek and Acacia senegal are the two main varieties harvested for producing gum arabic and these differ in many key aspects not many could be aware of:

• Organoleptics
• Color protection
• Capacity to improve roundness and mouthfeel
• Plugging effect on membranes
