Fresh vs Concentrated Grape Must: What Changes?

A comparison of seasonality, logistics, sugar concentration and sensory profile across two core grape-must formats.

Fresh vs Concentrated Grape Must: What Changes?

Fresh grape must

Fresh must is directly linked to harvest and is highly seasonal. Transport conditions and handling time are particularly important.

Concentrated grape must

Removing part of the water increases the concentration of sugars and soluble solids. The product changes in volume, handling and application while retaining a significant part of the original grape character.

Choosing the right format

For an industrial buyer, the decision depends on final application, transport and storage requirements, seasonality and the desired sensory profile.

Technical and regulatory requirements may vary by product and market. For commercial use, request the relevant specifications and documentation.
