Now that we have the crush of harvest behind us and the grapes are all nestled happily in their proper tanks and barrels perhaps we can consider the management of color and phenolics as the wines develop and blends are assembled.

As we all know, you can't manage what you can't measure. Wine chemistry measurement has become a critical part of wine production decision making in both the vineyard and cellar as well as in market targeting. While many chemical analyses have been simplified and their data application made routine, the measurement of color and phenolics has proven to be vague or difficult and expensive... until now!

Allow me to introduce you to CloudSpec from Marama Labs. The CloudSpec and Insights web app platform is a revolution in the measurement, data storage and presentation of color and phenolic data from grapes and wines throughout all stages of production through bottling and aging.

From the game-changing patented "Integrated Sphere" photocell that allows accurate spectral determination of cloudy or turbid solutions to the intuitive on-board CloudSpec software through the cloud based Insights web app database which fronts the powerful AWRI developed WineCloud tannin and phenolic algorithms to the multiple presentation options including CIELab data, grape and wine color and phenolics just moved into the "I can do this!" stage.

Marama Labs' CloudSpec instrument and platform makes color and phenolic analytical data easy, understandable and affordable. Let me reveal to you the power of the CloudSpec, I will be happy to schedule an on-site visit or a ZOOM meeting at your convenience.
