Regional team members serve their customers’ needs, provide training and offer oenological advice. Their work is carried out in collaboration with a network of recognised distributors and specialists who operate in the heart of each wine region.

Vintage 2017

Current reports of delayed ripeness and some disease pressure may require early interventions by winemakers. Lallemand suggests the following two SIY (Specific Inactivated Yeast) products that may be used during the fermentation process to manage this type of fruit matrix.

OptiMUM Red

  • High polysaccharide content promotes complexing with polyphenols in red wines
  • More intense colours, rounder mouthfeel and decreased perception of astringency
  • Assists in reducing harsh, green characters in unripe or diseased fruit

OptiMUM White

  • To reduce harsh acid perception and increase freshness in white wines
  • Preservation of grape aromas due to high levels of reduced-glutathione
  • Highest level of true, active glutathione in the market

For the 2017 Vintage Lallemand Australia has entered into a new distribution partnership with Winequip for both the Lallemand and IOC portfolios. Providing regional distribution centres, applied fermentation and dedicated winemaking support
