A new yeast to reveal the aromatic white wines from high-quality Riesling terroirs
Uvaferm GHM® was isolated by a team led by Dr. Manfred Grossmann, professor at the Geisenheim Research Center, Section Microbiology and Biochemistry. This is a new yeast for aromatic white wines from cooler regions. Numerous fermentation trials with Uvaferm GHM® yeast in Riesling and other aromatic white varietals from cooler regions resulted in consistently harmonious and well balanced wines. This yeast has the ability to enhance floral aromas, while avoiding strong ester production. Its brings harmony between the bouquet and the délicate fruit aromas. Uvaferm GHM®is particularly adpted for white wines destined for aging extended lees contact.Fermentation Speed
