Fermivin SM102
ELEGANT FLORAL WINES
Purpose
Fermivin® SM102 produces white wines with floral aromas (acacia, hawthorn).
This yeast is very well known for producing qualitative wines that are low in alcohol and/or can have residual sugars. These residual sugars can help balance the high acidity of certain white wines. It can also be used to produce fortified wines with a lower addition of alcohol.
It can also slow down the start of malolactic fermentation.
