Natural sweetness and versatility for high-quality production
Concentrated grape musts are essential ingredients for the winemaking and food industries, obtained through a controlled concentration process of grape must.
Bagnarese Spa produces high-quality concentrated musts, available both as Concentrated Grape Must (CGM) – in red, deep red and white variants – and as its more stable and purified version, Rectified Concentrated Must (RCM).
Thanks to the use of premium-quality grapes, carefully selected from the finest Italian Vitis Vinifera vineyards, our concentrated musts preserve the natural characteristics of the grape, delivering an authentic color, flavor, and aroma.
Grapes are harvested each year at their ideal stage of ripeness, starting in September, and immediately processed to preserve their natural properties.
Concentrated grape must (CGM) is obtained by concentrating fresh grape must, while preserving its natural sugars, organic acids, and other grape components. Available in both red (deep red) and white variants, it is used to increase the sweetness and body of wines, as well as in food products such as fruit juices and jams.
Rectified concentrated must (RCM), on the other hand, undergoes an additional rectification process to improve its stability and purity. Through this process, all substances other than sugars are removed, resulting in a colorless, odorless, and tasteless product with high sweetening power. It is ideal for enriching the sugar content of fermenting musts and sweetening young wines without altering their organoleptic properties.
Both products represent versatile and high-quality solutions for the winemaking and food industries, combining Italian excellence and production innovation.
