Finishing tannins can be an added tool to help enhance complexity in wines prior to bottling, or to provide a final stylistic touch to wines. We offer a range of finishing tannins, depending on the desired outcome.

Tannin Riche

Scott’Tan^TM Tannin Riche is a cellaring and finishing tannin notable for enhancing complexity. Derived from 100% toasted French oak, Riche imparts hints of coconut and vanilla, together with a perception of sweetness.

Tannin Riche Extra

Scott’Tan^TM Tannin Riche Extra was specifically developed from 100% American oak. This proprietary tannin contributes nuances similar to Riche, but with heightened perception of vanillin oak character. It works well in conjunction wity low doses of other Scott'Tan tannins (e.g. Complex, Estate, FT Blanc) and can help smooth a wine's finish. 

 Tannin BOLD

Part of our OTT (Over the Top) tannin line, Scott'Tan BOLD was developed to provide an amplified final touch to your wine. Wood, caramel and vanill notes are highlighted on the nose and in the mouth of wines adjusted with BOLD. These wines also exhibit a pronounced oaky arom. BOLD an enhance the perception of sweetness, while also altering the tannin profile to reduce the perception of alcohol in reds. 

 Tannin FINESSE

Scott'Tan FINESSE was developed as a stylistically New World finishing tannin, but with an eye on organoleptic balance. This proprietary tannin has shown to lower the perception of alcohol and hotness in reds and as well as perceived “biting” acidity in whites. Aromatically, it can exhibit tropical notes in chardonnay and red fruit in cabernet sauvignon. Scott’Tan FINESSE will also heighten perception of oak and sweetness.
