58W3 Yeast

Pinot Gris, Gewürztraminer, Riesling, Viognier, Sémillon Isolated during a five-year study by the INRA (National Agricultural Research Institute) in Alsace, France. Due to its fermentation kinetics, especially in high potential alcohol juices, a balanced nutrient strategy and good fermentation practices should be followed. Vitilevure 58W3TM contributes an overall well-balanced mouthfeel with floral and fruity aromas. Allows for the release of bound terpenes in aromatic varieties due to the beta-glucosidase activity. This enhances classic varietal characteristics. Alcohol Tolerance 14% ABV Competitive Factor Yes Fermentation Speed Moderate Malolactic Compatibilty Average Maximum Temperature 25°C (77°F) Minimum Temperature 12°C (54°F) Nutrient Demand Medium Species S. cerevisiae
