Description
Break down yeast cells and glucans from Botrytis
LALLZYME MMX™ breaks down filter-clogging glucans that can be present due to the activity of Botrytis or other glucan-producing microorganisms.
-
Can be added to wine aging on lees to increase yeast autolysis rates, leading to rounder, fuller-bodied wines
-
Can integrate mouthfeel components by releasing “sweet” peptides
-
Recommended contact time is 6-8 weeks
-
Pectinase and glucanase act synergistically to improve the clarity and filterability of wines containing glucans from Botrytis
