Description
For treatment of pinking or browning, removal of bitter compounds
Polycel is a blend of polyvinylpolypyrrolidone (PVPP) and cellulose formulated to help prevent and/or treat compounds which cause pinking and browning. It can also be used to treat bitterness and herbaceousness. As Polycel can bind color molecules and catechins it is best to use in young wines.
