Lalvin PERSY™
(Saccharomyces cervisiae)
Product details
LALVIN PERSY™ is highly recommended to produce wines with full expression of varietal aroma. With its unique properties, such as the non-production of SO2 and non-perceptible levels of H2S, LALVIN PERSY™ is the right choice to ferment varietals like Shiraz, Tempranillo or Pinot noir, enhancing the fruit character, freshness and aroma persistency. Wines fermented with LALVIN PERSY™ from different varietals show a perceptible impact in mouthfeel perception, with round and soft tannins. LALVIN PERSY™ has excellent fermentative performance, alcohol tolerance and good compatibility with MLF.
