Lalvin CY3079 (YSEO) Yeast (500g)

Lalvin CY3079 was selected by the BIVB with the objective of finding a yeast that would complement typical white Burgundy styles. This yeast greatly benefits from using rehydration nutrients and complex yeast nutrients designed for use during fermentation. When properly fed, CY3079 has good alcohol tolerance (up to 15%) and is a low producer of VA and sulphides. Due to low-foaming, it is recommended for barrel fermented Chardonnay and sur lie ageing. Chardonnays produced with CY3079 have rich, full mouthfeel and are characterised by aromas of fresh butter, almond, honey, white flowers and pineapple. Microbial and oenological properties Saccharomyces cerevisiae var.cerevisiae. Desirable fermentation temperature 125C.Shormoderate lag phase and moderate fermentation vigour. Medium high relative nitrogen demand (under controlled laboratory conditions). Alcohol tolerance 14.5v/v *subject to fermentation conditions. Moderate relative potential for S0² production. Killer factor neutral.
