Application
Enoferm M2® was isolated in Stellenbosch, South Africa and is from Massey University culture collection. It is a neutral to low ester-producing yeast and needs a high level of balanced nutrients (Go-Ferm® or a Natstep product) for a strong fermentation finish. In red and white it can be distinguished by its expression of citrus and blossom notes.
