Œnological objectives
Chips Fresh are slightly toasted woods, that coat the palate, adding volume to the mid-palate without impacting on the aromas.
For what type of wine ?
Chips Fresh fit perfectly with fresh white and rosé wines that lack a mid-palate, or on thermo red wines to coat the hard tannins emerging from alcoholic fermentation.
Direction for use
When is the right time to apply ?
The chip format allows you to quickly extract the potential of the wood in the wine. Application at AF ensures better integration with the wine while adding volume on the palate. Application during maturation, after MLF, brings out the full aromatic complexity of the wood while preserving its impact on the palate.
How much to apply ?
The dosage of Chips Fresh should be adapted according to the volume of the wine in the mouth and the desired oenological objective. From 1 to 5 g/L for white, rosé and red wines.
What is the contact time for these chips ?
During fermentation : the time required for vinification. 7 to 10 days are needed to extract all the
potential of the wood (aromatic and palate contribution).
During ageing : a contact period of 1 to 3 months is recommended to ensure good integration
of the wood.
