Fermivin AR2

INTENSELY AROMATIC WHITE AND ROSÉ WINES

Purpose

Fermivin® AR2 releases large quantities of esters and low levels of volatile phenols.

This makes highly aromatic, clean, complex, and gourmet white and rosé wines (rose, tropical fruits, pineapple). It can achieve alcoholic fermentation at low temperatures (12–14 °C).

Its best fermentation aroma performance is in clarified must with a turbidity higher than 60 NTU. Adding the autolysed yeast Natuferm® Pure improves its fermentation ability.
