Ok, I know that they are thickeners and mouthfeel enhancers. But in my quest to put together an f-pac for my blackberry wine (after ruining my gallon of choice berries by being an idiot...grrrr.....), I've been shopping up syrups, jams, concentrates and whatnot. A lot of them contain either guar gum or xanthan gum. Will either of those have a negative effect on the wine? Will the alcohol just break them down? Just avoid them altogether?
