Reduless is a Specific Inactivated Yeast.  This is a unique yeast derived product with biologically bound copper, developed to reduce sulphur compound off-flavours and improve wine quality.

Noblesse and OptiLEES are two different Specific Inactivated Yeast products, developed from two different oenological yeast strains.  These products are added post Alcoholic fermentation.  PRE-ADDITION LABORATORY BENCH TRIALS are highly recommended to determine which product best suits the wine and to confirm the most suitable dosage rate.  Refer to the information sheets in Expertise Documents for more technical information or the product technical datasheets.

The most high-risk period for sun damage and smoke taint is at the onset of ripening, or veraison.  There are several white and red winemaking techniques that could assist to minimize the smoky character in finished wine.
