1-STEP™ process

Celebrating 50 Years of Our Selected Wine Yeast In 1974, Lallemand began producing its first selected wine yeast in active dry form. After mastering the production and drying process of baker’s yeast, Lallemand explored the possibility of adapting that knowledge to other fermented products, including wine. Partnering with Scott Laboratories in California, Lallemand successfully grew and dried two selected wine yeasts from the […]

35th anniversary of bacteria For over three decades, our commitment to quality and innovation has shaped the world of winemaking, also through our knowledge in the production of selected wine bacteria. Our Journey Begins It all started in St-Simon, France, in 1988, where Lallemand acquired the bacteria plant, right at the heart of the Auvergne region. With enthusiasm and […]

The use of direct inoculation yeast is less effective and safe than rehydrated yeast Since the development of active dry yeasts for wine in the 70’s, to get the best of them, the best practice has been to rehydrate them in water at 37 °C for a short time, before inoculation of the juice or must to be fermented. However, there is a new trend for so-called “direct inoculation” […]

Many of us associate volatile thiols with sauvignon blanc, manseng, riesling or colombard. Fewer of us associate them with red wine. Yet thiol precursors are much more frequent in red varietals than could be expected. […]
