Guaranteed stability WITHOUT ADDITIVES WITHOUT LOSS OF WINE An energy-efficient & continuous process
STABILIZE YOUR WINES WITH STARS STAB®
INCREASE YOUR PROFITABILITY WHILE OFFERING YOUR CUSTOMERS WINES WITHOUT ADDITIVES
STARS® (Selective Tartrate Removal System) is the result of OENODIA’s development of an innovative, unique and high-performance eco-process: Electrodialysis (ED).
STARS STAB delivers a membrane-based technology, utilizing their exclusive Electrodialysis technique, that safely and effectively removes wine tartrates, and has been proven to enhance wine quality, save power, eliminate wine loss and reduce water usage.
Electrodialysis is the only process that can GUARANTEE 100% reliable TARTRATE STABILIZATION, whatever the color, quality or quantity of wine treated and regardless of storage conditions. It offers a high degree of agility, enabling fast and continuous treatment while preserving the natural characteristics of the wine.
STARS® is the only comprehensive process that combines a predictive test (DIT® test) via STABILAB to predict Tartrate stability and then delivers Tartrate stability in a single pass via STARS STABILAB is then used again to provide a specific stability verification test (ISTC50®).
Exhibiting no loss of wine and a 95% reduction in energy consumption as compared to cold treatment, STARS stabilizes your wine in a lasting way while preserving its organoleptic qualities.
A subtractive, additive-free and high-performance process, STARS is aligned with the sustainable development objectives of the 21st century.
An energy efficient process, electrodialysis only consumes 0.2 kilowatts per hectoliter of wine and guarantees a 100% reliable tartaric stabilization (- 4°C / 24,8°F, for 6 days) for all wines.
STARS, an innovative and sustainable stabilization process, makes it possible to obtain a perfectly stable and limpid wine guaranteeing you reliable sales abroad. With operating costs 30 to 40% lower than cold treatment, STARS allows a high level of responsiveness thanks to its continuous process.

1- ANALYZE
The DIT® test performed by the STABILAB® device is one of a kind.
It makes it possible to precisely determine the degree of tartaric instability for each wine. From this, the STARS treatment rate necessary to guarantee a stability that is both absolute and long-lasting can be deduced.
2 - STABILIZE
Analyze and stabilize your wine in a single pass using STARS®.
The processing rate can be configured in just one click.
STARS instantaneously and continuously stabilizes your wine to achieve an unparalleled responsiveness.
3 - CONFIRM
The ISTC50 test verifies the effectiveness of the STARS® treatment, thus providing you with a definitive guarantee on the stability of your wine.
Extremely precise and reassuring, it can simulate a 6-day cold exposure (at -4°C) in a matter of hours.
STARS® MULTIFUNCTIONALITY
STARS is also a versatile tool that can accurately fine-tune your wine pH and color, 2 fundamental elements of tartaric stabilization.
