LALVIN ICV D47™
(Saccharomyces cerevisiae cerevisiae)
For complex whites with citrus and floral notes
LALVIN ICV D47™ is a Côtes du Rhône isolate from Suze-la-Rousse for the production of fullbodied barrel fermented Chardonnay and other white varietals. When left on lees, ripe spicy aromas with tropical and citrus notes are developed. LALVIN ICV D47™ is a high polysaccharide producer known for its accentuated fruit and great volume. On most white grape varieties, this yeast elaborates wines with ripe stable fruits or jam-like aromas. Thanks to these aromas, the cuvées fermented with the LALVIN ICV D47™ are a good source of complexity in the blends. Moreover, LALVIN ICV D47™ contributes to the wine’s silkiness and persistence. Excellent results are obtained for the production of top-of-the-range Chardonnay fermented in barrels, especially when blended with LALVIN ICV D21® fermented Chardonnays.
