BIOLEES®
Specific nutrient preparation of yeast cell walls with a high sapid peptide content (Patent n° 0452803)
BIOLEES® is the result of the understanding of natural phenomena associated with maturing wine on lees. Its new formulation enhances its fining capacities, making it a high-quality natural alternative to egg albumin. Its unique composition consists of:
- Yeast cell walls which have been specifically tested and selected for their fining capacities, consequently promoting the elimination of certain polyphenols responsible for bitterness and astringency.
- Confirmed enrichment of a sapid peptide fraction that contributes to increasing smoothness and roundness sensations.
- Yeast cell walls which provide nutrition to the yeasts
