Description

  • EnartisStab Micro offers reliable, fast-acting microbial protection with no compromise to wine clarity, aroma, or purity
  • It's the smart tool for today’s quality-focused, low-intervention winemaker
  • The clean, modern solution for microbial stability

EnartisStab Micro M is the only pre-activated chitosan-based microbial stabilizer on the market, providing rapid, broad-spectrum microbial control without the use of SO₂ or lysozyme. It is a clean-label, allergen-free, and vegan-friendly tool for winemakers seeking reliable protection against spoilage organisms—while preserving wine quality, color, and aroma.

Key Advantages:

  • Rapid microbial action
    Inhibits lactic acid bacteria and spoilage yeasts like Brettanomyces within 24–48 hours.
  • Eliminates the need for lysozyme or high SO₂
    Offers broad protection in wines where reduced intervention is desired.
  • Clarification & filterability
    Helps settle microorganisms and fine particles, improving wine stability and reducing filtration burden.
  • Color and aroma preservation
    Particularly effective in reds, where early microbial control helps retain vibrant fruit character and structure.
  • Exclusive pre-activated formulation
    Ready to use without extended hydration or solubilization—faster and more effective than standard chitosan.
  • Versatile timing
    Can be used in must, post-MLF, during élevage, or before bottling.

Recommended Usage Rates:

  • White / Rosé: 10–30 g/hL
  • Red Wine: 20–40 g/hL
  • High-risk wines: Up to 50 g/hL (max)

Sample Protocol for Use:

  • Determine dosage based on wine style, spoilage risk, and timing.
  • Prepare suspension:
  • Dissolve EnartisStab Micro in 10x its weight in clean, chlorine-free water (e.g., 100 g product into 1 L water).
  • Mix well until fully dispersed (typically within 5–10 minutes).
  • Add to wine via pump-over, mixing tank, or direct addition during transfer. Ensure thorough distribution.
  • Contact time: Allow 3–5 days of contact before filtration or bottling. Do not rack off before full settling is complete.
  • Compatibility: Do not combine with products containing bentonite, silica sol, or tannins in the same tank. Allow time between additions.

When to Use:

  • After crushing (to reduce native spoilage flora)
  • After MLF (to prevent VA or Brett growth)
  • Prior to bottling (for unfiltered wines or low-SO₂ programs)
  • In natural and minimal-intervention wines (vegan- and allergen-compliant)
