Ascorbic Acid  

Description

Manufacturer: IOC

ASCORBIC ACID (E 300 – Vitamin C) is used to prevent the oxidation suffered in the must and wines.

In an acid environment, it fixes the oxygen to form dishydroascorbic acid, thus preventing enzyme and non-enzyme oxidation, and ferrous precipitation, from occurring in the wine.

It is used during the bottling of still wines or during disgorgement to prevent the wine from ageing prematurely.

Dose: 10 g/hl

Packaging: 1 kg
