Yeast: DR-202 (100g)

Description

DR 202 enhances red berry, blackberry, black currant, tobacco and prune aromas in red wine. 

DR 202 has a high alcohol tolerance, good fructose utilization and a stimulating effect on malolactic fermentation, when compared to other red wine strains. It is therefore especially suitable for the vinification of high sugar musts where the resulting high alcohols at the end of fermentation can potentially cause sluggish or stuck alcoholic fermentations and/or problematic MLF's.

Recommended for

Red wine, Rum, and any berry-fruit fermentations.
