• Finishing Tannin that enhances mid-palate volume and aromatic complexity in red wines
• Balances structure by integrating polymerized oak tannins with wine tannins
• Reduces astringency while promoting a smooth, round mouthfeel
• Stabilizes color and improves antioxidant capacity during aging
• Ideal for use in premium red wines requiring subtle oak character without barrel aging

EnartisTan Unico 1 is a highly polymerized oak-derived tannin formulated to enhance structure, texture, and aromatic depth in red wines. Its composition mirrors the tannin profile of seasoned oak barrels, making it ideal for fine-tuning wines that need mid-palate weight, softness, or aromatic lift without introducing green or bitter notes. Unico 1 integrates seamlessly with the wine’s phenolic matrix, rounding out mouthfeel while reducing aggressive or coarse tannins. Its use promotes color stability and oxidative protection, especially during long-term aging. Unlike lower-grade tannins, Unico 1 offers refined elegance and consistency, which is why it's preferred by winemakers aiming to elevate premium lots without the variability of barrel aging.

Protocol for Use:
Unico 1 can be used during maturation or before bottling. Dissolve the tannin in 10 parts wine or warm water before addition, and mix thoroughly into the tank. Allow at least 3–5 days for the tannin to integrate before filtration or bottling. Bench trials are strongly recommended to determine ideal dosage and evaluate impact on taste and structure.

Usage Rate:
Recommended dosage is 5–30 g/hL depending on wine style and target structure.

That is equivalent to:
— 0.05–0.3 g/L
— 0.19–1.14 g/gallon

Start with lower doses for delicate reds or wines with existing oak influence, and increase for structured reds needing volume and polish.
