VinoCrush® Classic
Novozymes North America, Inc. · VinoCrush®
VinoCrush® Classic is an enzyme preparation that breaks down pectin in wine and fruit juice production. It contains polygalacturonase to enhance juice extraction and filtration. For red grapes, it boosts wine yields by up to 5% and reduces turbidity by over 50%. For both red and white grapes, it lowers post-fermentation clarification costs, increases processing loads, and reduces herbaceous flavors.
