Wine Tannin (250 g

Winemaking Additive for Structure, Mouthfeel, Complexity & Aging Support

Wine Tannin is a valuable winemaking additive used to improve body, structure, mouthfeel, and aging potential in homemade wine, fruit wine, cider, and other compatible craft beverage projects. Extracted from grape skins and seeds, tannin adds subtle astringency and complexity while helping create a more balanced finished wine.

Ideal for red wines, fruit wines, country wines, and wines made from low-tannin fruits, this tannin can help add depth, improve texture, and support clarification by binding with proteins and suspended particles during the winemaking process.
