Pure: High-purity potassium metabisulfite with over 99% active content, free from heavy metals and impurities
Low-odor: Virtually odorless formulation ensures a more pleasant working environment for cellar staff
Easy to use: Fine, free-flowing granules that dissolve easily without forming clumps or “rocks”
Anti-oxidation: Effectively scavenges oxygen, binds acetaldehyde, and protects color and aroma compounds
Winemaker-trusted: Preferred by premium producers for its consistency, performance, and purity
Winy potassium metabisulfite is the highest quality product of its kind on the market. Thanks to Enartis’ production expertise, Winy offers a purity level exceeding 99% metabisulfite with virtually no odor—avoiding the harsh sensory impact and poor solubility common in generic sulfite powders. It’s engineered to dissolve cleanly without forming lumps, ensuring even distribution and accurate dosing. Many winemakers choose Winy for its superior oxidative protection and microbial control without altering the wine’s aroma or mouthfeel. Whether you're working with delicate whites, fruit-forward rosés, or structured reds, Winy preserves freshness, color, and varietal integrity.
Protocol:
Dissolve Winy in cold, chlorine-free water or juice at a 1:10 ratio before adding to must or wine. Stir until fully dissolved, then add to the tank, barrel, or fermenter while mixing to ensure complete dispersion. Use at crush or pressing for juice protection, or post-fermentation and pre-bottling for stabilization.
Usage rates:
Each gram of Winy provides approximately 0.56 g of SO₂. Suggested rates:
– To achieve 5 mg/L SO₂: 0.009 g/L (0.034 g/gal)
– To achieve 10 mg/L SO₂: 0.017 g/L (0.064 g/gal)
– To achieve 30 mg/L SO₂: 0.052 g/L (0.197 g/gal)
– To achieve 50 mg/L SO₂: 0.086 g/L (0.325 g/gal)
– To achieve 60 mg/L SO₂: 0.103 g/L (0.390 g/gal)
Adjust based on must or wine pH, and always confirm with analytical testing to maintain proper free SO₂ levels during aging and bottling.
BRL97 is the ultimate choice for winemakers dedicated to capturing the rich heritage and robust character of traditional Italian wines
BRL97 brings unparalleled depth, aromatic complexity, and aging potential to your winemaking process
Unleash the bold, structured elegance of classic Italian reds
BRL97 is a premium Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain, meticulously selected for its ability to enhance the complex structure, robust tannins, and deep aromatic qualities characteristic of classic Italian red wines. Isolated from a Nebbiolo fermentation in the Barolo region, this yeast is ideal for varietals such as Nebbiolo, Barolo, Barbaresco, and other full-bodied reds. BRL97 drives a steady fermentation while preserving delicate aromatics, achieving a harmonious balance between fruit expression and tannic depth.
High Alcohol Tolerance: Efficiently ferments up to 16% ABV, supporting the production of strong, well-structured wines.
Enhanced Tannin Extraction: Promotes polyphenol extraction, amplifying mouthfeel and depth while preserving tannic structure.
Aromatic Preservation: Optimized to retain primary fruit aromas while enhancing spice, leather, and earthy notes typical of Italian reds.
Temperature Range: Ferments cleanly between 62°F (17°C) and 85°F (29°C), providing flexibility across different fermentation strategies.
Low Volatile Acidity Production: Ensures clean, refined wines with minimal acetic off-flavors.
Medium Flocculation: Settles well for efficient clarification without excessive lees compaction.
Applications
Italian Reds: Specifically suited for Nebbiolo-based wines like Barolo and Barbaresco, as well as Barbera and Sangiovese, where tannic structure and aromatic complexity are paramount.
Bordeaux Blends: Enhances the intensity of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc, delivering deep, structured wines with elegant aging potential.
Aged Reds: Perfect for wines destined for barrel aging, as it develops intricate layers of spice, leather, and toasted oak during maturation.
Fortified Reds: Performs excellently in high-alcohol environments, suitable for Amarone and Port-style wines.
Flavor Profile
Dark Fruits: Rich expressions of blackberry, plum, and black cherry with deep, concentrated flavors.
Spice & Earthiness: Subtle notes of tobacco, leather, black pepper, and dried herbs provide complexity and depth.
Elegant Tannins: Supports structured tannins that balance bold fruit with a smooth, age-worthy mouthfeel.
Aging Potential: Enhances longevity, allowing wines to mature gracefully over time, developing complexity and integrated tannin profiles.
Usage
Rehydration: Rehydrate in 10 times its weight of chlorine-free water at 95°F (35°C) for 15–20 minutes. Stir gently to avoid clumping.
Pitch Rate: Use 1–1.5 grams per gallon (0.25–0.4 grams per liter) for optimal fermentation and flavor development.
Nutrient Addition: Supplement with yeast nutrient for fuller attenuation and minimized off-flavors, particularly in high-Brix musts.
Fermentation Temperature: Maintain between 62°F and 85°F (17°C and 29°C) for optimal tannin extraction and aromatic retention.
Extended Maceration: Ideal for longer maceration periods to extract deeper color and tannin structure in full-bodied reds.

A dry wine with overtones of green melon leading to a crisp, clean finish. A bouquet of honey and herbs combined with aromas of clove, nutmeg, and butterscotch from the addition of oak, completes the experience of this perennially favorite white.
Ontario Pinot Grigios are characteristically lively with a lingering finish due to ample hours of sunshine throughout the seasons. The Pinot Grigio grape grown in Ontario is typically an early ripening grape (an evolution of the Pinot Noir grape), allowing for the longer development of delicate floral and honey-like characteristics.
Pinot Grigio grapes are often harvested earlier to retain the fresh acidity, giving the wine its fresher and lighter style. Ontario Pinot Grigios are usually described as “vibrant”, pale straw in color and dry. This grape varietal can be best enjoyed in warmer weather as a refreshing beverage.
The Italian Pinot Grigio we currently carry in our Cru International portfolio is a more complex, old-world style of Pinot Grigio, whereas our new Ontario grape offering is a more easy-going, light, and refreshing Pinot Grigio characteristic of a new world style Pinot Grigio.
Food Pairings
The delicate aromas and crisp acidity of this light and refreshing Pinot Grigio compliments the flavors of herbed butter seared scallops, feta and grilled asparagus pizza, or even a pasta al olio (olive oil, chili, garlic).

ProRestart and ProDessert contain yeast cells encapsulated within Alginate (natural polysaccharide extracted from seaweed) that are also acclimatized to alcohol and other harsh conditions. Unlike regular dry yeast, our encapsulated yeast are pre-conditioned to harsh conditions such as high sugars or high alcohol. They are a great choice for finishing stuck fermentations or fermenting dessert wines. To use, the beads are placed in a nylon bag and suspended in the ferment. The vast majority of the yeast stay trapped within the alginate beads. When they have completed their task, the bags are removed from the wine with few residual yeast cells from the culture being left behind. Though there may still be indigenous yeast present, use of the encapsulated yeast significantly reduces the amount of SO2, sorbate or tank chilling that are necessary to arrest fermentation. Sanitizable weights, such as stainless fittings or marbles, are placed in the bag to keep the bag submersed throughout the fermenation process. 83 Grams will treat 100L or 30 gallons of stuck wine.
Works quickly due to preconditioning and direct addition into a stuck or sluggish fermentation. This is much, much easier than traditional restart methods. Decreases spoilage risks due to its rapid fermentative activity and helps avoid excessive SO2 additions. Decreases risks related to color loss from oxidation. Preserves the flavor of the wine due to rapid sugar consumption without volatile acidity increase or other spoilage problems. Use 83g per 30 gallons. Culture can be transferred to next barrel after first barrel is finished. Comes with nylon mesh bag and full set of instructions.

WineStix are a new form of oak integration for wine, designed to give new barrel flavors with an extraction time similar to cubes. The combination of Short and Long grains result in amazing gradience of flavor similar to barrels, while extracting significantly quicker! These are Light toast North American Oak staves, and depending on the wine, will impart flavors of light vanillin, almonds, coconut, and fresh oak. The American Oak Tank Staves are sized to provide New Barrel flavor to a 60 gallon lot of wine. Doing more than 60 gallons? Simply toss in another stave! Another advantage of the WineStix over traditional staves is that these will not stick together like flat staves would, the cross-hatch pattern will result in consistent extraction throughout the life of these. These can also be cut down if necessary to dose a smaller batch of wine. Stave measures 4 in. W x 37 in. L.
The Oak Barrel Replica is a simple and perfect way to impart 100% new barrel flavor into wine stored in a neutral oak barrel. 30 staves are tethered into 10 sections, which allows modification and complete control. If you want 50% of new barrel extraction spread over two barrels, simply cut the Replica in half. The contact time is 3 months minimum and up to 18 months of useful life. Toast level is Medium Plus. Comes with eye hook for insertion to a bung. Stavin recommends a wood or silicone bung.
