Essential Acid Blend for Balanced Winemaking and Brighter Flavour

Acid Blend is a classic winemaking additive used to adjust acidity, enhance flavour, and improve the overall balance of homemade wines, fruit wines, ciders, and craft beverages. Made from a balanced combination of citric acid, malic acid, and tartaric acid, this blend helps create a crisp, refreshing taste profile while supporting better wine structure.

Ideal for home winemakers and small-batch producers, Acid Blend is especially useful when working with low-acid fruits, grape must, country wines, or recipes that need extra brightness and complexity.
