Presses compensated with inert gas for winemaking

Ensure the protection of delicate wine flavors during pressing by utilizing an inert atmosphere, preventing oxidation, and enhancing aroma retention for superior white and rosé wines.

Prevents Oxidation and Gently Presses Grapes

Della Toffola’s nitrogen-compensated inert gas wine press uniquely safeguards grape integrity during pressing, using a pure nitrogen atmosphere to prevent oxidation. Equipped with a centrally installed tubular membrane, it ensures even and gentle pressing. Ideal for producing high-quality must for wines like Chardonnay and Rosé, it features customizable gradual pressing cycles that optimize extraction. The press offers flexibility, operating traditionally or for carbonic maceration at controlled temperatures using an optional refrigerated lining. Its automated digital control system simplifies operation, while a patented nitrogen recovery technology minimizes gas consumption. The integrated washing system maintains excellent hygiene, making it a reliable choice for wineries and beverage producers seeking top-tier results.

Benefits
