This is a strain suitable for all styles of red wine (except high alcohol wines above 15% ABV). This moderate fermenting yeast produces well structured, well balanced wines with enhanced dark fruit notes and good palate length. The strain promotes varietal fruit expression without detracting from the natural qualities of the grape and is excellent for producing full fruit red varietal wines with good structure, balance and colour. 

Suitable for Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Shiraz, Zinfandel, Grenache, Tempranillo, Sangiovese, Red Country wines and more.

Flavour / Mouthfeel Characteristics: Wines made using this strain will be full bodied with an abundance of dark fruit flavours. This yeast is gentle on the wine must and so does not strip out any flavour, colour or body from it, rather it preserves and enhances these aspects.

Aroma Characteristics: This strain developes dark fruit aromatics producing wines with fruit forward aromas..

Higher Alcohol Wines: This yeast is not suitable for wines above 15% ABV, but will produce full and fruity wines below this.
