Home > Metodo Ganimede® > Grape seeds extraction
The typical turbulence generated by the Ganimede®system leads to a fall by gravity of the grape-seeds, which amass in large quantities at the bottom of the fermenter where they can be easily extracted through a valve located at the bottom of the tank.
Also in this case Ganimede®confirms its ability to facilitate a SELECTIVE extraction of only the noble substances present in the grapes.
Grape-seeds are often a source of bitter and aggressive tannins and, depending on the vintage and vines they represent a variable to be considered with great care.
In traditional fermenters, the mechanical action and washing out of the wine over the cap, combined with temperature and alcohol action, dissolve the protective cuticle present in the grape-seeds, leading to the passage of the substances they contain right into the wine-must.
The unripe seeds (which in several years may represent a significant amount) will transfer their bitter and aggressive tannin content to the product, resulting in poor and rough wines with an herbaceous taste and this will also lead to wines that require many ageing cycles, with increased costs and delays in sales.
