LALVIN R-HST™ was selected for its exceptional oenological properties in Riesling from trials conducted from 1991 to 1996 in the Heiligenstein region of Austria. With appropriate nutrition R-HST, enhances fresh varietal character producing crisp, citrus, lime, floral (rose) and mineral notes, and contributes body and mouthfeel for an overall complexity and elegance. LALVIN R-HST™ improves the fruity varietal characters of Riesling. Experience under Australian conditions suggest that best results are obtained with this yeast when the fruit is harvested below 12° Baumè.Fermentation Speed
