Acid Blend – Winemaking Acid for Adjusting Wine Acidity

Acid Blend is a mixture of tartaric, malic, and citric acids commonly used in winemaking to adjust acidity and improve balance in finished wine.

Natural acidity levels vary depending on the grape variety, growing conditions, and fruit ripeness. If acidity is too low, wine may taste flat or dull. Acid blend helps restore balance and brightness to the wine.

Common Uses:

• Adjust acidity in grape wines and fruit wines
• Improve balance and flavour
• Increase freshness and brightness in finished wine

Typical Use:

• Add gradually to must or wine while monitoring acidity.
• Winemakers often measure pH or titratable acidity before adjusting.

The amount of acid blend required will vary depending on the initial acidity of the fruit, the style of wine being produced, and the winemaker’s preferences.
