For aromatic whites, aged reds, rosés and ‘sticky’ wines

A yeast from the Massey University culture collection. It is used to produce very aromatic white wine, contribute complexity in the production of red wines for aging, and to produce rosés and ‘sticky’ wine. After completion of fermentation, the yeast flocculates and settles to give compact lees. Produces a high concentration of esters giving fruit salad aroma, particularly at fermentation temperatures below 20°C. The yeast ester aroma decreases over time as fermentation esters hydrolyse.
