LALVIN BA 11™
(Saccharomyces cerevisaie cerevisiae)
Product details
LALVIN BA11™ was selected in 1997 near Estação Vitivinicola de Barraida in Portugal. It has excellent fermentation kinetics, even at low temperatures. It promotes fresh aromatic characteristics and intensifies mouthfeel and lingering flavors in whites, such as Pinot gris. In relatively neutral white varieties, BA11™ encourages the fresh fruit aromas of orange blossom, pineapple and apricot.
