Delvozyme® (Lysozyme)  
Controlling lactic bacteria is critical when making high quality wine. SO2 has long been the only tool for microbial control in winemaking but its use is controversial because of the disadvantages and technical constraints for the user (volatility, incidents of oxidation and combination, reduced effectiveness at high pH levels). Nevertheless, it remains a vital subsidiary tool for its antioxidant and antiseptic attributes.

Rapidase AR2000 
Some grapes contain odourless glycosides that can be a source of terpene aroma compounds. By using enzyme action to split these compounds, aromas can be released. Adding AR2000 to wines made from certain varieties, particularly aromatic whites such as Riesling & Gewürztraminer, can increase their aroma intensity. Some reds such as Shiraz, Pinot Noir and Merlot also respond well to this treatment. Dosage is 20-30 g/kL. Add at end of alcoholic fermentation.

Rapidase CB 
Handling and processing of grapes prior to fermentation extract a significant quantity of pectin.
Pectic-polysaccharide have gelling and electrostatic properties that maintain particles responsible for haze in suspension. Removing these particles from must using static or dynamic settling (flotation, centrifuge…) is one of the main steps in white wine production.
The use of RAPIDASE® CB degrades long chains of pectic polysaccharides.
The resulting reduction in juice viscosity and electrostatic interactions provides fast juice clarification and more compact lees.

Rapidase Ex-Color
This is a special pectinase preparation developed to assist the rapid extraction of colour in red wines. It is a pectolytic enzyme that has enhanced activities that degrade the grape skin and liberate colour components. It is often used for Pinot Noir but can be used for other varieties as well. The pectolytic activities also enhance juice extraction, settling and clarification. Dosage 10-50 g/kL, added prior to maceration.

Rapidase Filtration 
Rapidase Filtration promotes better filtration by specifically hydrolysing filter fouling colloids in wine. Pectins are one type of these colloids, but other polysaccharides such as glucans also interfere. This pectolytic enzyme also has b-glucanase activity which effectively increases filtration rates. Particularly useful for Botrytised wines. Dosage rates are 20-50 g/kL, added at the end of fermentation.

Rapidase MaxiFruit (NEW) 
Rapidase® Maxifruit is an enzymatic preparation which recovers the maximum from the fruit.
A thorough knowledge of the grape berry components: polysaccharides, aroma, flavonoids (tannins and anthocyanins...) allowed DSM to direct the choice of principal and secondary activities of Rapidase® Maxifruit towards the production of softer and fruitier
wines adapted to consumers taste.
Moreover, the absence of any anthocyanase activity and the presence of a stabilizing activity, allows the winemaker to obtain wines with a stable color of an
intense cherry red shade after alcoholic fermentation.The presence in wines of a polysaccharide (RG-II) not degraded by Rapidase® Maxifruit, contributes to making round wines, as well as decreased astringency by preventing the aggregation of polymerized tannins.

Rapidase TE 
Polyphenol extraction, colour stabilization and wine clarification are major concerns in red grape
processing.
To achieve these goals, several parameters play an important role: fermentation temperature, duration and maceration techniques: pumping over, delestage,
thermo treatment, flash expansion…
The use of a specific enzyme formulation enhances maceration and largely contributes to process and
product improvement.

RapidaseVino Super 
This liquid pectolytic enzyme product is especially formulated in order to improve several areas of vinification. White and rose wines have improved pressing yield and increased percentage of free run juice. Filtration is improved. Red wines have better extraction and colour stability along with better clarification of the wine after pressing. Dosage and time of addition depends upon application.

Rapidase X Press 
Increased free run juice yield and ease of pressing for white wines are the major benefits of this product. By reducing the effects of pectic polysaccharides, less juice is retained. Settling and filtration are also improved. Formulated as a granular enzyme and used at the crusher or during skin contact. Dosage is 10 to 30g per 1000kg.

Rapidase X Press L 
Pectic polysaccharides are a major structural component of the grape berry cell wall.
The amount present in must depends on the grape variety, level of ripeness and on pre-ferment grape processing technologies.
Pectic polysaccharides gelling and water retention properties cause low free run juice yields and poor
pressability.
