Napa, CA (Jan. 22, 2018) — Vinventions, the leading global supplier of complete wine closure solutions and Wine Quality Solutions, and Enartis USA, a world leader in premium enological tools and analytics, have today announced a new partnership to offer best-in-class winemaking services across the United States, Canada and Mexico.
Following its tradition in providing the wine industry with the most innovative technologies, Enartis USA sought to expand its offerings through the industry’s foremost enological and research group by Vinventions, Wine Quality Solutions (“WQS”). By combining efforts and resources, Enartis and Wine Quality Solutions will deploy the WQS devices and winemaking services as reference enological tools across these regions.
Through this partnership, Enartis USA will distribute Vinventions’ Wine Quality Solutions enological tools and services, including:
- NomaSense O2, for oxygen management in every single stage of winemaking, including bottling line performance and TPO measurement.
- NomaSense PolyScan P200, the first analyzer to measure in real-time must or wine polyphenol content at different winemaking stages.
- NomaSense Color P100, a portable colorimeter based on the CIELab system that can monitor color extraction and stability without any sample preparation.
“We are very excited about the launch of this new partnership with Enartis” says Pedro Pereira, Senior Wine Quality Solutions & Sustainability Manager at Vinventions. “Enartis’ technical expertise as the leading supplier of enological products, coupled with Vinventions’ real- time quality control tools, will enable an expanded presence of Wine Quality Solutions in California and across North America. By combining resources with Enartis, we will be able to really address the challenges the industry faces when seeking ways to optimize winemaking, bottling and wine preservation.”
“This partnership with Vinventions helps us complete our portfolio of testing equipment and will allow winemakers across North America to better monitor and optimize the winemaking processes, from grape to bottle. WQS equipment provide meaningful and actionable data, while being easy to use,” says José Santos, President and CEO of Enartis USA.
Effective since Jan. 1, 2018, the Wine Quality Solutions enological tools and services by Vinventions are offered by Enartis USA through this distribution partnership.
